What Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know that EVE: Valkyrie is a sci-fi, space-based, arcade-style shooter. Action is fast-paced and nonstop, taking the form of epic space battles among squads of fighters, with all manner of shooting and explosions taking place in 360 degrees. While there’s rare use of mild language in game dialogue, it should be pointed out that, due to the game’s focus on multiplayer, there’s a chance for players to be exposed to offensive language when teamed up with others in a party. Players can also use real money to purchase in-game currency to upgrade and customize their ships.

What’s It About?

In EVE: VALKYRIE, you’re an ace pilot in the ongoing battle for supremacy of the depths of space. After meeting your demise at the wrong end of a dogfight, you learn that death is only the beginning. Your consciousness is saved and downloaded into a new cloned body, where you live to fight again and again and again as part of the Valkyries, a splinter pirate faction made up of the best of the best. Players will test their mettle and make a name for themselves in massive multiplayer eight-vs.-eight dogfights, while unlocking their past by reliving memories in the single-player Chronicles mode. Once their skills improve, players can join in the epic Carrier Assault, a series of battles aiming to take down an enemy carrier, culminating in a trench run into the belly of the beast.

Is It Any Good?

In this epic sci-fi space shooter, you don’t just get to watch dogfights, you get to live them, so long as you can deal with repetition. From the first moment your fighter gets catapulted into battle, you can’t help but get a sense of how massive deep space can be. It doesn’t take long, though, before enemy squads swoop in and you realize that even in the depth of space, combat can be claustrophobic. You see, in space it’s easy to lose sight of which way is up because, technically, every direction is up. It can be a little disorienting at first, especially with the 360-degree view the VR unit provides, but before long you’ll be swooping in and out, rolling, dodging, boosting, and braking with the best of them, all to try to get a clear shot at an opponent while avoiding getting hit from behind … or below … or above.

As wild as the dogfighting can get, even deep space can have a few speed bumps. One of the game’s most interesting features is its use of eye tracking to lock onto targets. Basically, if you want to fire a salvo of missiles at one enemy, you stare at the target to get a lock, and then fire away. Most of the time it works great, but occasionally (and especially when the VR headset needs a quick recalibration), the alignment gets a little off and you find yourself forced to look just to the side of your target to establish a lock. The other gripe you’re likely to have with the game is its reliance on grinding. There are lots of little things to unlock in EVE: Valkyrie, but to get to any of them requires a marathon session of gameplay. It’s not only a grind to unlock these items, but it’s also a grind to earn the in-game currency to buy those unlocked items. This is where microtransactions rear their ugly heads. Mind you, most of the items you can buy are vanity items, like new looks for the cockpit, new paint jobs, and the like. But there are also a few performance-related upgrades that can really help in both single-player and multiplayer, leaving you to decide if you’d rather grind a few more hours under the weight of the VR headset or go ahead and spend a few bucks to unlock some things that’ll make your time in space bit easier. Whatever you decide, the good news is that once you’re strapped into the cockpit of your fighter, all the other concerns just sort of fade away in a blissful escape. You can easily forget that you’re in a virtual environment, and, in that moment, you truly are an ace pilot and the pride of the Valkyries.

  • Families can talk about violence in video games. Does it lessen the impact of the violence in a game if there are no consequences? What about when the violence is big but not graphic, such as vehicles exploding but with no death shown on-screen?

Valkyrie’ & ‘Sparc’ – Road to VR

EVE: Valkyrie (2016), the sci-fi dogfighter from CCP Games, used to be one of most talked about titles in VR thanks to its cross-platform multiplayer, high visual polish, and position as one of the first games on Oculus Rift and PSVR. Starting August 5th, CCP is shutting down its servers for both EVE: Valkyrie and and sci-fi sports game Sparc (2017), putting a definite end to an era.

EVE: Valkyrie was a day-one launch title for both Oculus Rift and PSVR during the headsets’ respective releases back in 2016. It garnered favorable reviews then thanks to CCP’s ability to produce a highly-polished multiplayer game that clearly stood out among a sea of demos and short experiences.

For many, EVE Online developers CCP was delivering on the dream of what VR could become when established studios took up the mantle and invested in the fledgling technology.

After years of updates, one-off events, and even opening the game up to non-VR players across PC and consoles, its developers are finally pulling the plug on both Valkyrie and VR sports game Sparc.

Here’s the entire message from CCP, published July 1st on the game’s soon-to-be defunct website. A similar one was created for Sparc:

Intrepid pilots – all good things come to an end, even to the immortal Valkyries. Today, we have begun the process of discontinuing support for EVE: Valkyrie to focus CCP Games’ efforts and resources on new developments in our evolving portfolio of EVE Universe titles.

We are incredibly proud of what we accomplished with EVE: Valkyrie and its Warzone expansion and want to extend our deep appreciation to all our players for their support throughout the game’s lifecycle. It is an honor to have been a part of such a dedicated community.

For the time being, you won’t see any effect if you own a copy of the game. The game will continue to be playable with our servers remaining active until August 5th 2022.

On August 5th 2022, EVE: Valkyrie’s servers will be turned off, social media profiles will be closed, and this website will go offline. Once servers are deactivated, customer support for EVE: Valkyrie will no longer be provided.

Thank you for being a part of EVE: Valkyrie. We look forward to the next chapter in the EVE Universe and hope you’ll be a part of it and continue the journey with us.

None of this comes as any real surprise. Both games were effectively abandoned years ago after CCP sold EVE: Valkyrie to Sumo Digital and shuttered the Atlanta-based office behind Sparc in late 2017.

After three years of development on the earliest of VR dev kits, not finding success with its flagship VR title Valkyrie must have been a powerful blow to the studio, which historically hasn’t branched out from EVE Online outside of its mobile VR shooter franchise Gunjack and non-VR first-person shooter Dust 541. None of those have proven to be big enough earners for the studio to stray too far from maintaining EVE Online though.

In retrospect, Sparc represented a last ditch effort at making VR work for the studio, as the 1v1 racquet ball-style game was comparatively smaller in scale, and ostensibly in overall development costs. Still, the game was out less than two months before the company put it on life support and swore off VR entirely. Less than a year later CCP Games was acquired by Korea-based developer Pearl Abyss, the studio behind the MMO Black Desert Online.

A few months before the acquisition, CEO Hilmar Veigar Pétursson said that CCP expected VR to be “two to three times as big as it was,” a sentiment that many early developers shared as the reality of lower than expected VR adoption rates clashed against multiplayer-only titles such as Valkyrie and Sparc. That’s changed somewhat with the entrance of Meta’s Quest standalone, which has helped grow VR’s userbase significantly, although back then developers were banking on PC VR becoming a much bigger hit among consumers.

Anyway, lets send them off right with one more look at the launch trailers for EVE: Valkyrie and Sparc:
