EVE Online has featured several of the biggest PvP battles in gaming history, but it only lets you fly one ship at a time. Set in the same universe but from a very different perspective, EVE Galaxy Conquest is a multiplayer 4X strategy game that puts you in command of your own outpost and an entire fleet.

The factions and warships should be familiar to EVE fans, but you'll be able to command large numbers of them without having to yell at a bunch of mercenaries over discord to stick to the freaking plan.

...

EVE Galaxy Conquest will be soft launching on Android and iOS later this year. CCP Shanghai has not announced any plans for a PC version so far, but they didn't rule it out as a possibility. Likewise, we didn't learn anything for sure about the monetization other than it will be similar to other free-to-play mobile strategy games.

People still play eve?

I can’t remember how much isk I have on my accounts but I’ve no interest in playing again but I guess I should do something with it. Maybe I can buy a few capitals and go on suicide mission to burn it all.

Kinda sad you can’t just trade it to get some of the £1k’s spent over the years. 😞

We're at 20 years of Eve this year! Still going strong.

The slap in the face that was. They eventually even deleted the infantry kill mails. Dusties deserved better.

They announced a new FPS called Vanguard at Fanfest this week. It looks like fun! https://www.ign.com/articles/eve-vanguard-aims-to-be-the-eve-fps-that-dust-514-wasnt

Yeah I saw that 20 min after I posted here, I'm def gonna try it out when it is available. Possibly F2P the only problem I see is CCP isn't a well known company if they put it in their own launcher I can see the same fate as DUST 514. Mainly because people don't want another launcher.

mobile? ugh. 1) 4x with a tiny screen is not ideal. 2) it'll be a mtx hellscape.
