Dust 514′s Battle of Caldari Prime starts tomorrow

dust 514

A live event adding further integration between Dust 514 and Eve Online will take place this weekend, according to CCP. The Battle of Caldari Prime starts Friday morning and the devs predict it will be a rather large battle compared to the skirmishes which are already taking place. This will allow players to start “self-scripting” the lore and give Dust 514 players a better idea of the scope via these real-time events. Participant will earn a commemorative dropsuit, and you can watch the events unfold through Twitch. You can find out more on the Ballet for Caldari Prime through a Massively interview with senior producer Arnar Hrafn Gylfason. Dust 514 is in beta and will launch sometime this year.

Details are yet to be locked down, but more information is available in the announcement on the PlayStation 3 shooter’s forums.

Thanks, Polygon.
