Strategy Informer reports on an event taking place over in the UK today, where Cryptic Executive Producer Bill Roper delivered a July released date for Champions Online in the U.S. and Europe.
City of Heroes becomes the first massively multiplayer online role-playing game to allow player created content, with the release Issue 14: Architect.
Cryptic Studios makes a game out of the vast character customisation options in their upcoming superhero MMO Champions Online with the addition of a new “Rate My Champion” section on their website.
Get a glimpse of the various locales in Cryptic’s upcoming superhero MMO Champions Online, as the assembled denizens of the game gather to ring in the new year.
Former City of Heroes and City of Villains players are cordially invited back for a free weekend in order to check out the new features introduced in Issue 13: Power and Responsibility.
Cryptic have posted another of their development blog Q&As that gives a rundown of some of the more obscure features of their upcoming Superhero MMO.
By far the biggest — for this grim ‘n’ gritty 90′s comic book fan’s money — is the option to not have your character dress like a total idiot. In a bold swing away from other Superpowered games, characters in Champions online will be able to completely customise their look and dress in normal street clothes rather than compulsory star-spangled tights, underwear-pervert chic and flappy cloaks.
If capes are your thing, though, Cryptic are happy to confirm the option of “long scarves, torn cloth and cowls“. They have also been hard at work implementing attacks with chains, whips and mummy bandages – which gives some insight into the kind of bizarre details a game like this requires.
