EVE Frontier Opens Public Founder Access With Major "New Era" Update
EVE Frontier, the space survival MMO from C Games, is entering a new phase as it launches its Founder Access: New Era update. Previously limited to a closed alpha, the game is now available for the wider public on PC and Mac, allowing players to freely share gameplay and impressions for the first time. This marks a significant step for the title, which blends elements of survival games with the expansive, player-driven universe that the EVE franchise is known for.
Set in a galaxy shaped by player actions, EVE Frontier places players in the shoes of Riders, which are clones who must navigate a hostile environment, build shelters, establish Tribes, and compete for resources. The survival mechanics are layered with social and strategic elements, echoing the emergent gameplay that made EVE Online a long-standing hit among MMO fans.
- Founder Access: New Era update moves the game out of closed alpha and into a fully public phase.
- Players can now share gameplay content and experiences without restrictions.
- Introduces Cycles, a new seasonal progression system, with the first Cycle named "Promised Lands" starting now.
- Cycle missions and activities allow players to earn Grace, contributing to Tribe and individual rankings on leaderboards.
- New trailers were debuted at IGN Live and the PC Gaming Show, highlighting the game’s survival focus and the narrative theme of cyclical struggle in a vast, dangerous universe.
EVE Frontier continues C’s tradition of sandbox-driven gameplay, but with a survival twist and a fresh start for new and returning players. The public launch of Founder Access will likely shape the game’s direction as more players provide and share their experiences. As the game evolves, fans of both survival games and sci-fi MMOs will be watching closely to see if Frontier can capture the same long-term engagement as EVE Online, which has remained influential since its 2003 debut.
