EVE Online’s Capsuleer Day XXII Starts 15 April

The Drifter Crisis reaches its boiling point in Capsuleer Day XXII: Nexus Reckoning, launching 15 April in EVE Online. This full-scale seasonal event invites capsuleers across New Eden to take part in a faction-driven war that spans wormholes, Pochven, and empire space. Players will engage in high-risk combat, navigate lucrative challenges, and unlock exclusive rewards as the final phase of the crisis unfolds.
 

With the conclusion of the Race for the Hives, the top-scoring factions are now establishing footholds in Drifter wormhole systems—marking the beginning of a wider offensive that will require support from capsuleers of all stripes. Two new high-stakes sites, the Labyrinth Complex and the ominous Nexus Point (both gated to Tech II battlecruisers and below), will challenge even the most seasoned pilots, while the Drifters prepare a brutal retaliation.

Key features of Capsuleer Day XXII:

  • Faction-Driven War – Support the top factions as they battle to secure Drifter wormhole systems.
  • New Combat Zones – Explore two high-risk sites: the Labyrinth Complex and the Nexus Point.
  • All Playstyles Welcome – Combat, hacking, industry and trade all shape the outcome.
  • Exclusive Rewards – Earn Drifter-themed SKINs and SKINR components
  • Daily Login Bonuses – Log in each day for growing rewards, including Omega rewards from Day 1 and a significant Skill Point reward unlocking 6 May.
  • Agency & AIR Integration – Find challenges easily via both in-game interfaces

Every capsuleer has a chance to make a meaningful impact. Whether you fight on the frontlines, disrupt enemy logistics, speculate on loot markets, or build the engines of war, your actions will influence the final outcome. Long-running Drifter Crisis content remains active and expands to more regions, while the Horizon Siege Point site returns with new twists inside Pochven and wormhole space.

Capsuleer Day XXII: Nexus Reckoning concludes on 15 May. For more information visit the blog.
