- EVE Echoes has finally released after several delays

Earlier this year, CCP Games announced that EVE Echoes, the mobile version of the critically-acclaimed MMORPG will be delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Earlier today, the developer finally confirmed that EVE Echoes will make it to Android and iOS on August 13.

EVE Echoes was initially meant to release in 2019 but has faced a number of delays. Most recently, the mobile title was pushed back as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic as NetEase is based in China. The country was the first affected by the coronavirus outbreak and companies in the region have been forced to cut back production significantly. This meant that EVE Echoes could not be fully completed in time. The global emergency has led to a wide array of other delays and cancellations in the gaming industry, with several high-profile titles already having their launch dates moved.

Like "EVE Online," "EVE Echoes" will allow players to set up corporations to build and expand empires across its version of the New Eden galaxy. The base game will also be free to play, but will include monetization features just like its parent game, according to developers. If you want to Buy EVE Echoes Items, I think z2u.com is your best choice, after all, the site has been officially certified,so it's very safe.

"EVE Echoes" won't be allow current "EVE Online" players to transfer account information at launch, but will include several new features like ship skins and a new player base (called a Capsuleer Outpost) for explorers looking for a safe space to park. There's also an offline autopilot that sends players push notifications when they've reached a destination, which sounds super useful for gamers that may need to jump out of New Eden (or just turn off their phones) from time to time.

Although EVE Online is not quite as popular as it was during the height of the game's success, the series still has a dedicated following. So it makes sense that CCP Games would want to expand the franchise onto new platforms to take advantage of what is already a well established in-game universe. Fans will not only be very happy to see that EVE Echoes has finally released after several delays but also that it will have some crossover functionality. That provides an extra incentive for veteran players to download and play the mobile game.
