Like the original game, it features a large sandbox world, inter-galactic space combat, exploration, resource gathering, industrial manufacturing, open-world PvP, piracy, and a player-controlled economy run by big in-game corporations.

Meanwhile over on the original game, CCP Games revealed on Twitter that they’re currently working on localizing the game for Japanese players. “We want to acknowledge and thank our Japanese Capsuleer community for being a committed and integral part of EVE's global playerbase,” tweeted the studio. “CCP Games will soon be providing complete localization for the Japanese EVE Online community.”
