CCP Games continues push EVE Online to an international level as they announced with Nexon yesterday that EVE will launch in Japan on March 28. This new announcement will allow Japanese players to access EVE Online in their native language and play alongside hundreds of thousands of fellow gamers from around the world.

Nexon will manage all billing needs, along with local marketing and PR services while CCP will continue development of the game and gameplay related customer support. CEO of Nexon, Seung-Woo Choi, had this to say about bringing EVE Online to the Japanese market: "We're confident that the Japanese version will attract legions of new players ready to take their part in the endlessly unfolding drama of the EVE universe."

CCP also announced a partnership with online game operator TianCity to distribute EVE in mainland China last week. This will bring the supported language count to five with English, Russian, and German all supported.
