Icelandic developer CCP Games has announced the winners of its EVE Frontier × Sui 2026 hackathon.
Backed by a $80,000 prize pool, the event ran for three weeks during March 2026, gathering over 800 participants and generating a total of 123 submissions.
Running under the theme ‘A Toolkit for Civilization’, its purpose was to explore what happens when modding becomes part of a live game universe such as CCP’s in-development space survival MMOG.
In EVE Frontier, players create mods by configuring how in-game infrastructure behaves and by building tools that interact with the EVE universe. The projects submitted provided a snapshot of builder creativity both in terms of the game itself and Mysten Labs’ Sui blockchain, with data and community being the dominant categories.
Modder Reality Anchor grabbed first prize with CradleOS, a player-led civilization management system, securing $15,000 in cash, $10,000 in SUI Tokens and a trip to EVE Fanfest 2026.
Second place was awarded to Blood Contract, a bounty system enabling players to place rewards on targets. Civilization Control, a control system letting players manage infrastructure, snagged third place.
In terms of specific categories, the winners were:
- Utility: EasyAssemblies
- Technical implementation: Frontier Flow
- Creative: Tribe Bazaar
- Weirdest idea: Shadow Broker Protocol
- Live frontier integration: Frontier Factional Warfare
