EVE Vanguard is an upcoming MMOFPS set in the expansive EVE Online universe, developed by CCP Games. As an elite mercenary, players will engage in PvPvE (player versus player versus environment) combat, influencing the larger conflicts of New Eden.
The game emphasizes a sandbox experience, allowing players to set their own goals and strategies. Early hands-on impressions highlight smooth gunplay, seamless team coordination, and non-intrusive tutorials that effectively guide players through core mechanics like crafting and extraction.
CCP Games is actively involving the community in Vanguard's development, incorporating player feedback to refine gameplay elements. This collaborative approach aims to avoid past pitfalls encountered with previous projects like Dust 514.
While a specific release date hasn't been announced, EVE Vanguard is listed as "Coming soon" on Steam. The developers plan to launch early access in 2025, with a full release targeted for 2027, followed by a console launch in 2028.
