How to play EVE Vanguard

EVE Vanguard is in early development and not always available to play. We are committed to building the game with the community, running regular closed playtests with players invited to try out new features and content and help shape its future.

We also run public events. These are always available to EVE Online subscribers but can also be accessed through a valid EVE Vanguard access code.

Current event is live now.

STEP 1: GET AN ACCESS CODE

To take part in an EVE Vanguard event, you'll need an access code or an active EVE Online subscription.
