EVE devs dress up as Yule Lads to hand out presents

Iceland must be weird

I love CCP. They are a bunch of crazy guys, and every time they come out with a video it’s always bizarre and amazing. To celebrate the holiday’s in EVE Online, the guys at CCP are giving out in-game gifts on an advent calander. Of course, they had to create a video of the tale of the Yule Lads, dirty hobos with names like “Pot Licker” and “Door Slammer”. They confront Santa Clause while flying around in space ships, which makes perfect sense I’m sure.

EVE players can visit the redemption page to grab a new gift every day until Christmas. Nothing says “Happy Holidays” like some missiles or a 150mm Light Carbine Repeating Cannon. There are also snowballs you can fire at other pilots, which is a fun way to celebrate before you pod kill someone.
