I’ve rambled on about this odd mix of anticipation and uncertainty I feel for CCP’s wild new idea, EVE Vanguard. The folks who brought us EVE Online are trying out something fresh with this shooter. They’re taking cues from games like Destiny and Helldivers 2, tossing in their space wisdom, and wanting us to care more, play harder. Maybe they’ll shake things up for real.
Lots of skepticism swirling around about these big promises. For more dirt, check out the link up top, and stick with me through Eve FanFest 2025 – I’ll dish out more as things unfold. But seriously, talk is cheap. CCP Games wants you to feel it with your own fingers! So, during their big talk at FanFest, they dropped the bomb: EVE Vanguard’s hitting early access in Summer 2026. But hang on—there’s a sneak peek happening September 16. Shooter fans chewing at the bit, heads up! Hit up Discord for the lowdown.
Apparently, EVE Vanguard’s a player-driven FPS sandbox (fancy words, right?). You dive into this mix of chaos, set your own goals, and scrape by however you can. It’s got layers—go scavenge, hunt others, tackle risky jobs. The worlds? A mess, but full of chances. Press releases love pretty words, but this one nails what I’ve seen—it’s gonna be solid, entertaining, and not the usual seasonal grind. But shhh, gotta keep some secrets—for now. More coming once embargoes lift. Stay tuned.
Oh, and speaking of dates, these are all new. I mentioned consoles before—yeah, we’re eyeing 2028 for that. Here’s the scoop they gave last time:
– 2024: Founder’s access
– 2025: Early access
– 2027: Global launch
– 2028: Console rollout
Now, early access is sooner by a year. What about the rest? Still up in the air—gotta corner CCP and dig for answers this weekend. Anyway, if you’re itching to find out how Vanguard sizes up against the likes of Marathon and Arc Raiders, you’ll soon get your chance to jump into the chaos.
