Every EVE player must have experienced it at least once: The fanfest of EVE Online in Reykjavik. In addition to several keynotes, the future of the space simulation is presented here. CCP released an exciting trailer for the upcoming game EVE: Valkyrie.
Competition to Star Citizen?
If you watch the trailer, you might almost think it’s about Star Citizen. But as soon as the first Battlecruisers and Titans appear, the seasoned EVE player knows that the spectacle takes place in New Eden. It is questionable whether the trailer shows real gameplay scenes. If so, space enthusiasts can hardly wait for the release of EVE: Valkyrie. But see for yourself:
Playable in Virtual Reality
The deceptive calm at the beginning is of course just the calm before the storm. EVE-typical, a huge enemy fleet of Amarr warps into the own ranks within seconds. The slaughter ends with a doomsday attack from the enemy Titans. Exactly, those are the ships worth several thousand euros. EVE: Valkyrie is supposed to be a next-generation game already playable in virtual reality. For this, CCP is cooperating with Sony and their Project Morpheus.
Anyone who hasn’t started with EVE Online yet has definitely missed one of the most intense MMO experiences you can currently have. The reasons why the game is still worth it after more than 12 years, I reveal to you here.
