Heroes And Villains Team Up In 'City Of...' Update News

NCsoft releases the tenth issue of the superhero/supervillain MMO...
NCsoft has today confirmed the release of Issue 10: Invasion, the latest update to superhero MMO, City of Heroes/Villains. Following the invasion of Earth by the Rikti, an alien race aiming to destroy humanity, both Heroes and Villains have to team up in order to save Paragon City and the Rogue Isles.
"The Rikti maintain a very powerful position in the lore of City of Heroes and the Rikti invasion event we had during the beta stage of the game is still talked about by veteran players," said Matt Miller, Cryptic Studio's lead designer for City of Heroes and City of Villains. "We felt the time was right and it fit into the narrative of the game to unleash another invasion -- with a vengeance -- and transform the Rikti Crash site into the heart of the new alien incursion."
"This expansion unleashes total war where aliens and earthlings get great new weapons to bludgeon each other with. We think this will be great fun," Miller said. "The fact that both heroes and villains need to join together to defeat a common enemy is a comic book convention that helps to add greater depth and excitement to City of Heroes and City of Villains."
Renaming the Rikti Crash Zone into the Level 35-50 Rikti Warzone, Invasion features missions that enable both sides to work together against a new common foe. Additional tools have also been released to help fight the Rikti, including Vanguard Support Machines, and the Vanguard Workbench, enabling gamers to forge new pieces to add to their costumes.
