CCP and their affiliates have been incurring sizeable losses instead. They released a mobile game, EVE Echoes, via NetEase shortly after the acquisition, but this has apparently fallen short of expectations, and CCP are now focusing rather heavily on "web3" games fuelled by blockchain bullshit. They are also still trying to make an EVE Online FPS, despite screwing this up three times in a row.

CCP had a one-hit-wonder and never again figured out how to make a game.

Dust 514 was apparently really good but being PS3 exclusive it never took off

Yeah, that was a very, very odd choice.

You have Eve Online, a PC exclusive MMO. And you try to sell the playerbase on a PS3 game? Most of them literally don't have the proprietary hardware to run that game but 100% of them have a gaming PC sitting right in front of them....

This isn't to say don't include the PS3, but why the hell wasn't it on PC where the entire Eve playerbase is?
