I can think of no other game developer whose aspirations align more perfectly with our own, and we’re very excited to see what our joint future holds. Like CCP, Pearl Abyss also have an incredible passion for creating virtual worlds, and their mission is to create the best MMOs in the world. As a nerdy Korean MMO maker, Pearl Abyss’ company culture is very similar to that of CCP’s our two companies share similar DNA and there is an appreciable cultural fit for sure. Pearl Abyss is a great home for CCP Games.
If there is anything I have learned from EVE Online it’s that good things take time and great things take even longer. This will be important for the years to come as partnering up with another MMO developer means that we have an even greater shared depth of experience to pull from and can tackle even more (and bigger) long-term mutual goals. Being acquired by Pearl Abyss means that we will be bringing a videogames company on board as well as a new long-term home for CCP. They have been with us on this journey for over a decade with all our ups and downs and as is the business of financial investors, selling their shares at some point is part of the plan. Right now, CCP is owned by a group of three big financial investors. Consequently, it’s super important to me that we make decisions that are - above anything else - in the best interests of the health of those worlds.
It’s been a thrilling fifteen years for EVE Online and as we look toward the Third Decade, you can be sure that our community continues to be at the forefront of our minds whenever we make decisions that could affect EVE.Īt CCP, we pride ourselves on being gamers who build virtual worlds for fellow gamers. One of the key things that we always remind ourselves of is that it’s you – our pilots of New Eden – your stories and the epic decade-and-a-half that we’ve all forged together that has put CCP on the map. Given our close relationship with our community we want you guys to hear this news first, directly from us, so I thought I’d provide a little bit more insight into what’s currently happening at CCP and assuage any concerns that our pilots may have about this announcement. Today CCP has announced in this press release that in the coming months we will be acquired by Pearl Abyss, Korean developers of the gorgeous hit open-world action-MMO Black Desert Online.
