In a shock transfer, CCP Video games has introduced that its in-development totally onchain house survival recreation EVE Frontier is switching from its present EVM testnet to construct on the Sui blockchain.
The transition is stunning as a result of as an object-oriented blockchain, Sui is a structurally completely different structure than EVM chains, additionally utilizing the Transfer programming language, not Solidity.
This variation means CCP Video games should redo a few of its earlier work with the present founder entry construct of recreation now being ported over to Sui. However when accomplished, it will add options corresponding to zkLogin for native account abstraction, which permits customers to sign up with their electronic mail addresses, and corporations to sponsored their fuel charges.
Extra usually, as EVE Frontier is prone to be in open growth for a few years, the sunk prices in all probability received’t be as excessive as they may first seem like.

Composability of its ecosystem is a key function for EVE Frontier, as CCP Video games needs thirdparty builders to have the identical elementary entry to constructing the sport and its universe because the firstparty builders.
As well as, because of its parallel execution of transactions, Sui additionally gives sub-second finality for transactions and is mostly thought of to be safer than chains makes use of Solidity.
Along with Sui, EVE Frontier may even use the Sui-based decentralized storage platform Walrus and safe onchain knowledge supplier Seal.
“Since inception, our mission has been to create digital worlds extra significant than actual life. With EVE Frontier, we’re pushing that ambition additional than ever earlier than: constructing a participant moddable universe, sure by its personal digital physics, that may outlive us all,” mentioned CCP Video games’ CEO Hilmar Veigar Pétursson.
“As we dug into how Sui is architected, we got here throughout so many acquainted ideas, corresponding to how their object-centric strategy neatly matches our historic item-centric strategy, enabling billions of objects/objects, all positioned by gamers, shaping a residing universe. For us, Sui supplied the distinctive alignment of structure, safety, and person expertise. Collectively, we’re constructing a world that may really stand the check of time.”
