Sony Online Entertainment (SOE) released the brand new Origin Crisis DLC pack for the popular free-to-play MMORPG DC Universe Online.
Origin Crisis is DC Universe Online's seventh DLC Pack and features the new Quantum power set which gives players the ability to bend time and space. The DLC is also offering iconic gears and rewards, and, according to developers, “deep, challenging Raid and Group content that will push Heroes and Villains to their limits.”
“Travel to alternate versions of iconic Gotham City and Metropolis to see what might have been. Set yourself and your friends against the combined minds and councils of alternate reality Batmen and Lex Luthors. Uncover the cost and dangers of manipulating time as a new threat emerges. Steady your resolve and get ready, because Origin Crisis is almost here,” the official page states.
The Quantum power in Origin Crisis lets players alter time, manipulate gravity and fold space, and this power set will be a tough nut to crack.
There will also be two 4-person Ops that will take Heroes and Villains into alternate versions of Gotham City and Metropolis, where the company has made key changes to the origins of each city's most powerful heroes.
“It will be up to you to make things right (or wrong)! Luthor and Batman are also running simulations to test what effect a change in time might have on the present,” the company states.
Below is a detailed list of what to expect:
- New Quantum Controller Power Set – Manipulate time, control gravity and twist the very fabric of space itself.
- Two new Raids
- Two new Hero Origin Operations
- Two new Villain Origin Operations
- Iconic Anomalies – Two new Solo Simulation Challenges
- New Gear, including Tier 5 PvE Gear and new Iconic-inspired Gear
- New Feats, Collections and Trophies
