Nordic News Flash: More than an EVE-ning with CCP
EVE Online is one of the world's most successful and long-lasting multiplayer online games. At Nordic Game 2007 you will get the chance to learn much more, not only about the game but also about the Icelandic developer CCP. Here's what to expect:
Keynote address: On Wednesday, 16 May at 13:15, CCP CEO Hilmar V. Petursson will be delivering a keynote address entitled 'The Tao of Virtual World Societies', examining ways to achieve a balance between the development team's vision and the community's desires.
On the show floor: EVE will be shown live at the CCP booth and visitors will have the rare opportunity to speak with members of the EVE dev-team; visitors will get a insider's look at the game, hear about the very latest updates, and learn more about exciting new features that are planned for the future.

In its first public appearance, CCP will also offer a sneak preview of the upcoming EVE art book, slated for release later this year. This volume will illustrate the evolution of the EVE Online from the very earliest sketches to the full-blown final release, and will include in-depth commentaries from EVE creator/Creative Director Reynir Hararson and Art Director Kari Gunnarsson.
But, wait! There's more! CMO Magnus Bergsson will present an overview of the very latest expansion, EVE: Revelations, with an emphasis on the upcoming features of the second, mind-blowing stage of this epic three-part deployment.
