About the Game

EVE Online is a vast, player-driven MMO where your choices are everything. 

Enter New Eden, a galaxy of over 7,000 star systems where players craft the economy, lead massive corporations, and build lasting legacies, friendships, and alliances that transform the game world. Whether you’re chasing combat, wealth, knowledge, or power, EVE Online offers the means to live your legend.

Play for free as an Alpha clone, or unlock every ship and faster progression as Omega. 

Chart the unknown. Scan ancient relics, uncover lost technologies, and navigate wormholes in search of rare loot and hidden threats. 

Join legendary, Guinness World Record setting fleet battles or carve out a reputation as a soldier of fortune. EVE’s wars are fought by real players, and remembered forever. 

From mining and manufacturing to trading and mission-running, EVE Online offers deep PvE systems for rich rewards and progression at your own pace. 

Fly any of over 350 starships, and customize them with endless options for different modules, components, and SKINs to make your ship unique to you.
