The expansion will come with new enemy ships, new rewards, and a new dimension to gameplay in EVE.

The Invasion is part of a series of content updates that will run through 2019 and expand the Triglavian story in EVE Online with additional updates.

Lastly, the expansion will change the War Declaration system to consolidate recent improvements.

"Capsuleers will be defending their territory from a fearsome new sect. We're incredibly keen to see our players fighting for the star systems they hold dear against an increasingly serious threat unlike anything they've ever faced before!"

"With EVE celebrating 16 years of strength and innovation, we continue to build on that ambition and tradition. I truly believe that by challenging our Capsuleers to defend the universe they have shaped, their destiny – as ever – remains in their own hands, ensuring EVE's appeal now and into the future."
