The long running space-based MMO EVE Online is known for its semi-annual free content expansions. In November subscribers for the game will be rewarded with the latest such free expansion, Incursion. As the title suggest, the expansion will introduce the threat of the Sansha's Nation who are attacking the game's universe.

Players will be able to fight off the Sansha's Nation incursion in the new expansion and get big bounties for their efforts. The expansion will also feature both hardware and software improvements, updating the game's character creator and improvements to the game's EVE Gate social networking system. EVE Online Incursion is due to be made available to the game's subscribers in November.

It's not exactly a shock to learn today that developer CCP plans to release a new free content expansion for their space-based MMO EVE Online. Coming this winter, EVE Online Dominion will be the 11th such free expansion for the popular MMO.

Among the new features coming to Dominion will be a revamp of the alliance warfare gameplay model along with pirate missions, the first parts of a new social networking feature called COSMOS, visual revamps of planets and more. CCP will discuss the expansion pack during the Penny Arcade Expo this weekend. However they do not plan to discuss the just announced Dust 514 console game at PAX 2009. It's likely they are holding off until their Fanfest in October to reveal more details.
