They are now barely recognisable as human and most suffer from Jovian Disease, a psychological disorder. You can create three characters for each account, playing as one of the four playable factions above – the Jove Directorate is a non-playable race, having ruined themselves with excessive genetic modifications in an attempt to cope better with intergalactic conditions. These five factions all have different powers and capabilities, and form alliances and enmities according to their needs at the time.

There are now five major factions in New Eden: the Amarr Empire, Caldari State, Gallante Federation, Minmatar Republic and the Jove Directorate. These earthy origins were forgotten or became absorbed into myth, as the survivors rebuilt their civilisations. The portal support failed, the wormhole collapsed and all the colonists were left to fend for themselves, learning to survive as best they can without supplies from earth. The word ‘EVE’ was inscribed on this structure and the new region called New Eden. Humans quickly moved in and established colonies, also building a sort of ‘stargate’ to try to stabilise the wormhole. At this point, an unexpected wormhole brought into easy reach a whole new star system of planets and moons, all rich with vital resources. Humans have, as might be expected, strip-mined the planet, and moved rapidly through the known solar system, fighting each other for increasingly precious resources.


The story is set 21,000 years in the future (in the year 23 341CE). The game is enormous, with around 7,800 detailed star systems that players can visit.
