CCP Games' EVE Online, a Massively Multiplayer Online Game (MMOG) set in outer space, is now available for Mac users. A free 14-day trial version is available for download with no credit card required. EVE Online costs $14.95 a month to play after the trial period.

A massive multiplayer online game (MMOG) set in a science-fiction based, persistent world. Players take the role of spaceship pilots seeking fame, fortune, and adventure in a huge, complex, exciting, and sometimes hostile galaxy.

A nominal monthly subscription is charged for each player’s account; users are responsible for their own Internet service fees. EVE is not a stand-alone, single player game and can only be played online. Unlike most MMOGs that split a large player base up among small clones of the same game world (called "shards") containing no more than 3,000 people, EVE is unique in that all of its players inhabit the same game world.

System Requirements are as follows:

Mac OS X 10.4.9 or later
1.8GHz Intel Core Duo processor (2GHz or higher recommended)
1GB of RAM
128MB video RAM (ATI X1600, NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT, or higher video card)
6GB hard disk space
56K Internet connection (broadband recommended)
