CCP was founded in the summer of 1997 with the goal of becoming
a leading massively multiplayer game company. With the launch of
EVE Online in May 2003, CCP has established itself as one of the
leading companies in the field, winning numerous awards and
receiving critical acclaim worldwide. CCP has a consistent history
of integrating hardware and developing software that is on the
cutting edge of technology.
CCP is a company dedicated to the development of progressive
virtual worlds, and it is founded on the principle of
pushing the envelope and breaking new
grounds on all levels. CCP is not about making copycat
products with compromised quality. CCP is about making dreams
become a reality, and we excel at that task because CCP is more
than just a workplace. It is a driving force powered by the
momentum of hundreds of motivated people.
EVE Online is a massively multiplayer space-based virtual
reality. Its design is one that fosters experiences unattainable in
any other form of media, where true human interaction and true
human emotions can be shared and experienced in a living and
evolving world. It is CCP's belief that massively multiplayer games
are the biggest revolution in computer gaming history and CCP is
dedicated to making the dream of a true virtual reality come into
being. EVE Online has sustained continuous growth since its release
in 2003. The players all co-exist on one server, in one game world.
This means that all players can interact with one another if they
choose to do so. It also means that if you are famous in EVE
Online, you are known by the entire EVE community, not by the
population of one game server. Both the technical design of EVE
Online and the emergent social behavior of its community have been
praised and studied by scholars and industry professionals across
the globe.
In November 2006, CCP Games merged with White Wolf Publishing, unifying the creative minds and world-building talents of both teams. We are currently in development of an entirely new breed of virtual world; one that offers a level of immersion and social interaction that will usher in a new age of virtual worlds and online gaming.
Human Capital is the most precious asset of our Company. The drive, passion, and enthusiasm of our employees provide CCP with the ultimate competitive edge in a challenging industry.
