CCP t0rfifrans has announced in a dev blog entry that a mini-expansion, which the team refers to as Apocrypha 1.5, is tentatively scheduled to launch in mid-August. The team is currently working on the winter expansion for EVE Online, but didn't want to make players wait that long to experience new content.
According to the blog entry, Apocrypha 1.5 will include the addition of "small and medium sized rigs (existing rigs will be considered large rigs), which will be cheaper to buy and make." The mini-expansion will also introduce new level 4 epic mission arcs will be more challenging and rewarding, and will each be themed around a specific race.
