Project Legion kinda went silent and died off after FF2014, and the future of the game was left shrouded in mystery.
However, a dev post just confirmed the status of the project: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=3092855#post3092855
CCP Frame wrote:Dear DUST 514 Community,
CCPGÇÖs development team in Shanghai has been working on a prototype for a first-person shooter for PC with the goal of building a great FPS set in our sci-fi universe of New Eden (the universe in which EVE Online, DUST 514, EVE: Valkyrie, and Gunjack are set). Their experience is being utilized to build a new game from scratch using Unreal Engine 4 while harnessing all our learnings from DUST 514. This is in many ways an evolution of Project Legion, the concept we announced at EVE Fanfest 2014, but without the limitations of technical debt and development paths we quickly discovered in that effort that could never serve as a future-proof technology base for a full production game. This new project is still in an early phase of production, and we feel like weGÇÖre on the right track and plan to give an update at EVE Fanfest on April 21st as a part of the free livestream of the event. Since this new game will be different from DUST 514 (although keeping many of its great parts), we will provide tiered recognition rewards to our loyal DUST customers, details to be announced.
We are very proud of what weGÇÖve learned and accomplished with DUST 514 on PlayStation 3 over the past three years and it is an honor to be a part of such a dedicated community. We consider DUST 514 one of the best free-to-play offerings on the platform, but the years have caught up with us. It is with a heavy heart that we inform you that DUST 514 will be shutting down on May 30th, 2016. We therefore will not be releasing the 1.3 update as we had planned. Players will continue to be able to play for free on our servers until then, but all further PSN packs and purchases have been removed and disabled from the in-game marketplace and the PlayStation Store. Players with existing Aurum will be able to continue to purchase items from the in-game marketplace.
Thank you for being a part of DUST 514 on the PlayStation 3. We look forward to the next chapter, and hope youGÇÖll be a part of it and continue the journey with us.

I really do hope people appreciate the community that was on consoles. It was dedicated and passionate, no less than the EVE community. With this move many of them will sadly be left behind, but please I do hope you all understand how vital their existence was for us to get to this moment.
DUST 514 didn't fail just because it was on PS3, contrary to popular belief. The studio was completely mismanaged. This means that even if the game was to release on PC, it would be a disaster in the first place. Thanks to the PS3 version however, you can be assured that the team behind it knows what they're doing, and understand the mistakes of the past.
Trust in our lords and saviors CCP Rattati and CCP Rouge.

Dust 514, it was sooo awesome, yet so bad, the concept, art & assets were top notch, but let down by poor performance and riddled with bugs and missing rather important features.
It's how I found myself into new eden and eve though
Anyways, PC version should be damn sweeet & its nice to finally hear some news that it's still be worked on, deffo something I'll look forward to hearing more about and then finally playing!

Well, as much as I loved DUST, I suppose this was going to happen eventually. No game lasts forever on consoles. |

Funny. I finally quit the sea service and got a high speed internet connection. I was preparing to buy a ps3 just so I could play Dust. Ahh well, would rather play a pc second gen version that, like eve, should be around for a long time. That is ultimately one of the secrets to Eve's greatness, it is the game that has our backs. I play eve confident that my character will still be around years from now.

Reading comprehension is lacking here. There is nothing that says dust is being ported. What it actually says is that DUST 514 is shutting down May 30 of this year. It is not being ported.
The post also says CCP Shanghai has been working on a new FPS set in New Eden that is planned for the PC. And maybe later they will port that to PS4.

What we're talking about is that the concept of an FPS in New Eden has been moved to a new game and platform. We haven't actually been campaigning all this time for them to just take Dust 514 and put it on a new platform with all the problems it has.

Quite exciting news for an EVE FPS on PC and sounds promising, I'll certainly follow this. Bit sad about Dust 514 closing down though, really wanted to give that a try. |

I'm amazed Dust lasted 3 years to be honest. 3 years ago everyone told CCP that releasing a free to play FPS tied into an arbitrary space game that no-one in your target audience has ever heard of was a bad idea. The concept of Dust is solid, but it should have been a PC title from the start. I have never understood the decision to go with the Playstation exclusively. It made no sense then, it makes no sense today. Hopefully Legion or whatever it's going to be called will do a lot better.

It made no sense then, it makes no sense today. Hopefully Legion or whatever it's going to be called will do a lot better. Its failure wasn't due to the PS3. It was actually incredibly popular for what it was, beating quite a few PC F2P game averages for a while. Probably because the PS3 didn't have many F2P alternatives compared to the saturated PC market.
Problem is, it wasn't much. The game was horribly mismanaged, and that would be true regardless of platform. The dev leads had no place being where they were. Hopefully this time around CCP Rouge and CCP Rattati will set things straight.
