EVE Frontier Awakens as CCP Games Announces ‘Founder Access: New Era’
New trailers and gameplay revealed this weekend; EVE Frontier goes fully public starting June 11
REYKJAVÍK, Iceland – June 7, 2025 - Today, CCP Games announced Founder Access: New Era for EVE Frontier, the in-development space survival MMO for PC and Mac, launching Wednesday, 11 June. A major update introducing new gameplay, content and Cycles, it also marks the first public step in creating a visionary sci-fi survival experience.
EVE Frontier is set in an enigmatic and hostile galaxy shaped by player-driven activity. Players inhabit Riders, awakened clones flung into the Frontier without purpose or memory of the world around them. As they venture into the dark, they must build shelters, forge Tribes and harvest resources to grow in power and survive the constant threat of annihilation.

Founder Access: New Era opens EVE Frontier to the public, as it emerges from its closed alpha phase. For the first time, players are free to share gameplay footage, impressions, and experiences without any restrictions, ushering in a new, fully public phase of development. To celebrate the announcement, CCP Games unveiled a new trailer, “The Ancient Dark”. Set in the shadow of forgotten ruins and the scars of eons-old wars, it chronicles the cycle of death and rebirth that binds all Riders - each caught in an endless struggle for survival within a cruel and boundless galaxy.
Founder Access: New Era also kicks off a brand-new seasonal progression system for EVE Frontier called Cycles. The first Cycle, Promised Lands, starts on 11 June. Players will gain Grace for completing in-game missions and activities, rising to the top of each Cycle Leaderboard alongside their Tribe. As Founder Access: New Eracontinues, Cycles will continue to introduce new missions, objectives and content.
More videos and information will be revealed in the run-up to Founder Access: New Era, including a sneak peek at gameplay during the PC Gaming Show and a deep-dive gameplay stream on Twitch, Sunday 8 June (21:00 UTC / 2:00 PM PDT / 5:00 PM EDT / 10:00 PM BST / 11:00 PM CEST).
