CCP Games announced today the launch of EVE Anywhere, a cloud-based platform for the hit spaceship MMO EVE Online. By working closely with Intel, CCP Games have created a way for players to command their fleets through Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari on any desktop or laptop computer.
EVE Anywhere is available for EVE Online players in the USA and selected European territories. The platform will be available for additional territories later on this year.
By working closely with Intel and their ability to compute within the cloud, CCP Games have found a way to remove the barrier of hardware limitations and has opened up the universe of EVE to new audiences as well as providing another route to the galaxy for old hands. This will revolutionise accessibility to the game, because if your computer can handle a browser, it can handle Eve Anywhere.
The platform entered into beta last year for certain test territories across Europe and saw an overwhelmingly positive reception. Since August 2021, more than 11,000 users across the globe have streamed 86,000 sessions in EVE Anywhere.
Throughout the beta, CCPGames took feedback provided by the community in order to improve the overall cloud experience in preperation for the full-scale launch of EVE Anywhere.
“EVE Anywhere was incredibly well received by those testing it in beta over the past year. We truly appreciate you Capsuleers who tried it out and shared invaluable feedback to help us improve the experience. Thanks to all of your help, we’re finally ready to get EVE Anywhere into your hands, no matter your browser preferences.”
Bergur Finnbogason, EVE Online’s Creative Director
