OPERATION NEMESIS HAS ARRIVED

- By the Vanguard Team

Attention Vanguard, 

Operation Nemesis, the next big battle, has arrived. EVE Vanguard, the in-development multiplayer sci-fi sandbox shooter set in the EVE Universe, is now available to play for free, until 2 October. 

See what you have in store in this exciting gameplay trailer: 

START STRONG

Operation Nemesis introduces 'Resurgence', which completely streamlines the first steps taken in the game, and provides new warclones the tools they need to survive. Learn fast, gain confidence, and step onto the field ready to fight. 

Once you have completed 'Resurgence', here’s a further guide to help you survive and thrive in EVE Vanguard:

NEW FIREPOWER

The revamped weapon manufacturing system allows you to forge devastating weapons from blueprints, experiment with different types of guns, like shotguns, rifles, and pistols, and customize them to suit your style. Faction variants, powerful chipsets, and an improved weapon locker makes your arsenal more customizable and diverse. 

FACE THE LEGION

Mordu’s Legion, the newest enemy NPC of the Vanguard, enters the field, organized, ruthless, and deadly. Adapt to their squad tactics or fall before them. 

BATTLEFIELD SYSTEMS

A host of QoL improvements are here, including proximity voice chat, Down but Not Out revival when you’d previously be put out of commission immediately, a slew of UI enhancements, and more to deepen coordination and immersion. 

9V9 INSURGENCY

Operation Nemesis expands the battlefield with a new greybox map. When not taking on the ground forces of Mordu’s Legion and uncovering secrets through expeditions, you can test your skills in the Sulphur Basin map, which pits warclones against each other in 9v9 PvP combat to see who comes out on top. Seize control of Upwell cannons, break the fleet above, and crush your enemies. 

TIME TO DEPLOY

Follow on Facebook, X, YouTube, and Discord for updates, and don’t miss any of the exciting streams happening on Twitch.  

Operation Nemesis is free and open to all. The field is waiting. Now is the time to help shape the game ahead of early access launch in summer 2026.
