CCP Games has revealed that EVE Frontier, its upcoming fully onchain multiplayer sandbox game, will enter a closed alpha phase starting Tuesday, December 10th. This marks a significant milestone for the game, as the alpha server will operate continuously, granting early adopters a unique opportunity to shape the game's development.

Limited Access and NDA

Access to the closed alpha will be exclusive to players with Founder Access, which is available for purchase in tiered packages ranging from $29.99 to $89.99. These packages, available starting December 5th, offer players more than just early entry. Founder Access holders will also receive benefits such as:

• Name Reservation: Secure unique in-game names.
• Exclusive Cosmetics: Obtain cosmetic items not available to other players.
• Premium Discord Roles: Gain recognition within the community.
• Access to Developer Streams: Get insights directly from CCP Games' team.
• Premium Subscription Time: Accumulate subscription time for when the web3 game officially launches.

Tiered Packages on Sale

Additionally, CCP Games has introduced a free trial option, allowing interested players to apply for limited access to the alpha. During the closed alpha, players will have unrestricted access to the game’s systems and items.

However, CCP Games has emphasized that the alpha is an evolving stage, and various aspects of the game will change throughout its development. Players should note that participation in the alpha is subject to a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), preventing them from sharing gameplay footage or details publicly.

Hilmar Veigar Pétursson, CEO of CCP Games, highlighted the collaborative nature of EVE Frontier:  “In EVE Frontier, we are deepening the contribution and connection players have over a living galaxy. A virtual world where developers and players are equals, where the rules apply to all.”

Final Thoughts

Pétursson further explained that the game aims to create a decentralized ecosystem where players take on an active role in governance and development. Founder Access serves as a gateway for players to contribute meaningfully to this vision. For further details on EVE Frontier and Founder Access options, visit www.evefrontier.com.
