This year, the North American version of EVE Fanfest has upped its game.

EVE and DUST fans can expect a weekend of partying, gaming, and networking opportunities. Devs and players alike will give presentations on both EVE Online and DUST 514. And exciting news: this time they are sending more devs! The devs will be bringing an exclusive in-person look at the EVE Online winter expansion as well as other upcoming updates.

There will also be a tournament for gamers at the event. A tournament with prizes. Seriously, who can resist prizes? I know I can’t. Someone mentions prizes or achievements and you can find me diabolically planning my victory in the corner, cackling maniacally… yeah, I’m normal. 

I mentioned partying, didn’t I?

Yes, the famous pub and club crawl will be returning to EVE Vegas. So, what’s new? Well, this year the main party will be held on the rooftop lounge of the Rio. Nothing says Vegas like sticking an alcohol-inclusive party on a rooftop. And if you’ve been to EVE Vegas before, then you can look forward to this year’s partying being even more grandiose and entertaining than past years.

Enough from me, tell me what you think of EVE Vegas! Or if you’ve been to the giant EVE Fanfest, share your experiences in the comments below!
