EVE Online expansion launch set for December 5th
EVE Online, the world’s most complicated Icelandic sci-fi economic-simulation massively multiplayer online role-playing game, will launch its new expansion, EVE Online: Trinity, on December 5, according to developer CCP.
The free download will be available to all 200,000 of the game’s players.
The release of the Trinity expansion fortifies EVE Online’s position at the forefront of three-dimensional game graphics, creating a breath-taking cinematic experience during actual gameplay. In order to achieve its visual goals, CCP developed a new graphics engine, architected for Shader Model 3.0 and above. In this first showcase for the new engine, all ships, stations and stargates have been reconstructed. EVE Online: Trinity employs advanced lighting techniques and complex surface materials to make these highly detailed models even more realistic.
A “classic” version of the expansion will be available for Windows, Mac and Linux. The “premium” version, with the updated graphics, will only be available for Windows. Premium versions for Mac and Linux are promised for Q1 2008.
