There are cracks if you know where to look - and I've been looking. Introducing: The Seeker.

Among a variety of other art updates, Cycle 5 brings our new Orbital Zones to life with updated lighting and shaders, as well as improved volumetrics effects - all to capture the majesty and mystique of exploring the ruins of long dead civilizations on the Frontier. Image provided by user Mythic.

Cycle 5 also brings a host of improvements to basebuilding, including ghost building for better base planning, collaborative resource drop offs, improved defenses, and much more. Images provided by user Azthur.

New Feral Drones with updated NPC AI are present in abundance in Cycle 5. While interactions with them are equal parts dangerous and potentially profitable, their intentions remain mysterious. Image provided by user MicroKong.

Cycle 5 introduces a full galaxy-wide rollout of Orbital Zones - vast regions of space within which Riders can search for resources, explore for valuable material and fight dangerous feral drones. Image provided by user Azthur.

The Frontier is a dark and mysterious place, full of unknown perils and pitfalls. Some days you might fly from star to star, at peace in the solitude of the void. Other days you log in on a Monday and there are nine-thousand ferals sitting at your base asking if you want to come out and play.

Fates are cast. Battle lines are drawn. Peace, or War? On last week's Frontier Friday, CCP Goodfella takes over to reveal a new challenge for Cycle 5. CCP Overload starts recruiting early. CCP Jötunn poorly consumes a beverage. CCP Bowman avoids danger. Watch it now: https://youtu.be/Ub20itNCE2c

"I watched the recovered signal from the Keeper a few times. There’s something out there. An installation and a lone ship next to it. Both silent, both dead. Feels like one of those places no one was meant to find."

The future of the Frontier is built on Sui. CCP Jötunn sits down with CCP Overload, CCP DGent, and Technical Director CCP Rauður to talk about how we're going to get there. Check out the VOD on Youtube now! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39m3O4Y260Y

Stargate structures endure across the Frontier, fixed in orbital alignments that no longer correspond to stable stellar configurations. Few remain active, cycling silently through predetermined coordinates. Most exhibit ring drift, desynchronization, or partial structural collapse.

Roadmap 2026 | The grand question of identity - are you the body you inhabit, or are you something more?

Roadmap 2026 | Next Gen collision detection - moving from spherical collision modeling to mesh collision, improving navigation and enhancing line-of-sight combat mechanics.

Roadmap 2026 | New ships, new textures, and a fresh design language for future starship iterations.

The web of primordial expansion is anchored to eroded megaliths of varied design and state but invariably gigantic scale. While some hold together, and others even show cases of functioning automation, many others lie in various state of decay.

Roadmap 2026 | The Shell and the Self: customizing not just your character's physical appearance, but also their soul.

Today on Frontier Friday - CCP Jötunn is joined by CCP Overload, CCP DGent, and Technical Director CCP Raudur to talk about the upcoming technical update and transition to Sui, as well as our March Hackathon! Stream goes live @ 13:00 UTC on CCPTV - https://www.twitch.tv/ccp

Roadmap 2026 | Manual firing controls: giving Riders a new, dynamic form of combat capability aside from the traditional auto-firing, auto-tracking weapons.

Roadmap 2026 | Enhanced sensors, more accurate wayfinding tools, and new opportunities to hide from predators or become one yourself.

Roadmap 2026 | Modular shipbuilding: putting the power to determine not only how a vessel looks, but also how it performs, in the hands of builders and pilots.

Manufacturing records from a long-defunct shipyard indicate that this vessel model was part of a run of mass-manufactured raw cargo haulers intended to move volatile material. Collected transit data indicates that thousands of these vessels were lost over the lifetime of its production run.

Like many vessels of that era, a model of this light military frigate contained a number of systems intended to reduce the necessary human crew component by as much as possible. Whether this was done to improve efficiency or due to a lack of personnel is unknown.

Roadmap 2026 | New landscapes to explore, new treasures to be found, and new dangers to be avoided.

Analysis of what records remain from deliberations on the extraction of crude matter point towards a number of ethical uncertainties, though the contents of those concerns have been largely lost to time.

Light military frigates in this classification are thought to have been a softer form of power projection. As a scaled down version of larger warships, they often lacked many of the heavier armaments found in those vessels.

Roadmap 2026 | The Golden Path - EVE Frontier's primary game loop; from basic survival and bushcraft, to resource collection and exploration, to regional dominance and prosperity.

Light haulers such as this are thought to have been used for a variety of purposes, from small transport operations between nearby worlds to more discrete operations that could be more easily flagged if carried out by larger freighters.

Roadmap 2026 | On the Frontier, any attempt at gathering information about what is around you inevitably allows what is around you to gather information about you.

Our 2026 Roadmap stream is LIVE! CCP Jötunn sat down with Game Director CCP Goodfella, Development Director CCP Bowman, and Product Manager CCP Overload to talk about the 2026 Roadmap and what we can look forward to in the upcoming months! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wD--bFQSNY

Much of what was once learned and lost about shipcraft has been recovered and revised over the many thousands of years since it was last put to practice. The power to take raw matter and change it into a vessel to cross the stars can now be deployed by a single Rider.

While the vessels they designed for extraction were rarely little more than form serving function, records recovered from the data layer imply strange rituals performed upon those vessels by their occupants, suggesting a belief in some kind of crude machine intelligence.

Considering how vital the extraction and consumption of still products was to those peoples who sought to claw together something resembling civilization, it should come as no surprise that the tools used to harvest them were as ubiquitous as their need.

After fire came construction, the reorganizing of one thing into another. Sophistication would come with time, however, and when the ambitions of those old civilizations on the Frontier required walls to be built or blood to be shed, the tools required were not constructed - they were printed.

Advances in basebuilding, weapon controls, NPC interactions and more await you in Cycle 5 and beyond! Join us this Friday at 13:00 UTC for our 2026 Roadmap Update stream with Game Director CCP Goodfella, Product Manager CCP Overload and Community Developer CCP Jötunn.

Perhaps Xeroti Tidofiza was not aware how the darkness had changed it - but change it did. What remains is the malformed echo of a function that no longer serves any purpose but to consume.

Today on Frontier Friday - CCP Jötunn sits down with Narrative Designer CCP Dramaturg to talk about advancements in NPC AI in EVE Frontier and how the Ferals are getting smarter, deadlier, and more creative. Stream goes live at 13:00 UTC on CCPTV: https://www.twitch.tv/ccp

Xeroti Tidofiza has awoken! Last night we streamed the initial interaction between the Riders of the Frontier and this new emergent threat. The VOD for this livestream is now available on Youtube - check it out now! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpkkhKr1zCM
