EVE Online FPS Project Nova was initially unveiled in 2016 as a spiritual successor to CCP’s long-defunct free-to-play PS3 shooter Dust 514.
Despite having already cancelled one attempt at turning EVE Online into an FPS, developer CCP’s enthusiasm for the project apparently remains strong: it’s now confirmed that, two years after Project Nova officially got the chop, work on a new FPS continues at its London Studio.
Despite that rollercoaster ride, CCP said it remained committed to releasing an EVE Online FPS and that work on a new sci-fi shooter, with expanded scope, would continue at its London studio.
During today’s EVE Online Fanfest Opening Ceremony, CCP announced (thanks PC Gamer) that the project – described as a tactical, hard sci-fi shooter – is alive and well at its London studio, and will be formally unveiled in due course.
