A major free update for EVE Online will be released on March 10, announced its developer CCP today. The expansion, dubbed Apocrypha, will bring unpredictable wormholes to the game, connecting new regions of the universe to the existing space of New Eden. It will also introduce modular Tech 3 ships and Epic Mission Arc, which are lengthy, branching quests for deep space explorers.

The content comes as the latest update to the game which has been running for quite some time now. It now has a complex financial ecosystem and population, with CCP recently reporting that its previous record for concurrent EVE players was broken when over 45,000 users were recorded to playing the single-shard game simultaneously.
