EVE Online Releases Uprising Expansion

EVE Online’s new Uprising expansion is live and comes with new ships, revamped factional warfare, custom ship emblems, and more.

EVE Online has just released its latest expansion, Uprising, which focuses on the escalating conflict between the major factions of New Eden and makes significant improvements to a number of systems. EVE Online players have access to a range of new Navy Issue ship variants, ship emblems for player and NPC corporations, a new Frontlines feature for factional warfare, along with plenty of quality-of-life and visual upgrades.

CCP Games’ EVE Online has maintained a unique presence in the MMORPG market for nearly 20 years, offering players the chance to live out a second virtual life among the stars. EVE Online runs on a completely player-operated economy where players can mine and refine raw materials, manufacture components, ships, and equipment, transport cargo, and even engage in acts of piracy against other players. Over the years, the game has become legendary due to the emergent storytelling caused by player interaction, with massive battles and ruthless acts of corporate espionage that occasionally make headlines, such as when one EVE player stole $13,000 in in-game currency.

A new Frontlines feature has been implemented to add depth to the factional warfare system, which should help drive conflict by rewarding players that take risks and operate close to enemy territory. Aside from combat, players can help the war effort by building Listening Outposts and Propaganda Structures or engaging in other support activities. Another major addition is the Heraldry system, which allows players to decorate the ships of EVE Online with custom emblems to represent their corporations or alliances. CCP says this is only the first step, and the system is expected to expand later on.
