Sure, here’s a revised version:
—
You know, I’ve been rambling a lot about this new shooter, EVE Vanguard, that’s supposed to shake things up. CCP, the folks behind EVE Online, are diving into this FPS world. And honestly, I’m kind of hyped, but also skeptical. They’re trying to smash together the best parts of games like Destiny and Helldivers 2 with their own twist from EVE. Sounds wild, right? They claim it’s gonna mean more to us mere mortals. Reignite the genre, they say.
Not everyone’s buying these big promises, though—it’s almost too good to be true. If you’re curious, there’s more info floating around, and I’ll be talking a lot more during this whole Eve FanFest 2025 thing. But here’s the kicker: CCP’s finally said when we can get our hands on EVE Vanguard. Early access is gonna hit Steam in Summer 2026. But for the truly impatient, there’s this early event happening on September 16. Like, seriously, mark your calendars if you’re itching to see what’s next after Dust 514. Oh, and hit up their Discord for the scoop on joining in.
The game’s billed as this sandbox shooter where you do your own thing, kind of like a choose-your-adventure FPS. The press release dropped all this fancy language about scrounging for gear, tackling epic battles, and setting your own goals to impact these New Eden wars. It’s a lot of spiel, but the bits I’ve seen? Pretty promising. It’s like, tired of the same old shooter grind? This could be your thing. I’ve got some secrets to keep—so stay tuned for more.
Now, some of you might be scratching your heads about date changes. Yep, there’s been a shift. I mentioned earlier in some piece that we’d see EVE Vanguard on consoles by 2028, with founder’s access starting in 2024. But look—early access has jumped a year. What about the rest? No clue yet, but I’ll poke around CCP this weekend and share what I find.
So yeah, if you’re anything like me and curious about how Vanguard stacks up against games like Marathon or Arc Raiders, your shot’s coming up real soon.
