EVE Online on the Mac next Tuesday

December 31st, 1969 | Category: Software

The Weblogs, Inc. network of blogs (of which TUAW is a part) announced its newest member today, Massively (covering news about MMO games, and co-lead by yours truly), and right there on the launch page was great news for Mac MMO fans. CCP, the company that makes the great EVE Online, has announced the release of a Mac client for the game next week.

The update will come in the anatomy of a new patch for the client (called Trinity), which will additionally feature new ingame ships, lots of new items, and updated graphics textures. I’ve only just recently gotten into EVE Online, but it’s a good date for a space-based MMO– really complex economy, harsh PvP, and excellent skill system. I know some Mac users have already been playing it with Boot Camp and Parallels, but it’ll be nice to finally have a native Mac client.

The patch is supposed to drop next Tuesday, so the Mac client should be available on the site sometime soon after that. Get ready to head into low sec space on your Mac, but be careful– the rats are out in force.
