MMOs and television series might not seem like two tastes that go great together, but it makes more than a little sense for EVE Online. Considering the extant lore of the game and the epic control wars that have been waged across the galaxy (and are still being waged right now), there’s every reason to think that people who might not play the game would like to watch the story. If you agree, you’ll be happy to know that Hilmar Veigar Petursson, CEO of CCP Games, recently stated that such a series is indeed in the works.
Petursson is quick to point out that such projects take a very long time to happen, but the company is currently working with Icelandic director Baltasar Kormakur and Scott Free Productions. Only time will tell whether or not the game does indeed make the jump to the small screen, but if you’re one of the people who prefers reading about EVE over playing it, you may soon be able to watch the stories unfold.
