Hey everyone!

As of 5 August 2026 macOS 11 (Big Sur) will no longer be supported in EVE Online. This version of macOS stopped receiving security updates in 2023 and is now unsupported by Chromium and Steam.

Those running macOS 11 will need to upgrade to macOS 12 (Monterey) or later to continue playing EVE Online. Apple Computers or Macs made before 2015 may not be able to upgrade to a newer macOS version, so affected pilots may need to explore alternative hardware options.

We will also be reaching out directly via targeted emails to those impacted by this change.
