What is EVE: Valkyrie?

EVE: Valkyrie is a multiplayer dogfighting shooter, set in the EVE: Online universe. It is the launch title of Facebook’s VR headset, the Oculus Rift. The player takes on the role of an elite space fighter pilot who is a member of a pirate faction.

The player has to fight against other pirate factions for wealth, supremacy, and notoriety. The game features single player PVE modes, skill-based character progression, ships upgrades, competitive social multiplayer action, and a deep story based on the EVE Universe.
