EVENT DOSSIER
The game EVE Online confirmed that its code migration to Python 3 will begin on August 25, 2026. This technical upgrade aims to improve the performance and security of the backend system and is an important step in the game’s long-term maintenance plan. The migration process has officially started, and the details of the implementation and expected completion time will be announced by the development team later.
EVE Online 宣布启动向 Python 3 迁移工作，将利用 futurize 脚本处理约 240 万行代码，并人工审查约 2 万个行为差异点。该游戏自 2003 年上线以来一直运行在 Stackless Python 上，上一次重大升级是 2010 年的 Stackless Python 2.7。此次迁移未提及如何替换 Stackless，但 EVE Online 曾在去年会议上展示其 Carbon 引擎使用碳调度库替代 Stackless 的经验。
