City of Heroes Issue 15 announced

By Oli Welsh Published 30 April, 2009

Celebrating 5 years with Anniversary.

NCsoft has announced that the next major update to its superhero MMO, City of Heroes, is in development. It's to be called Issue 15: Anniversary.

The title is a tribute to the fact that, earlier this week, the game celebrated its fifth birthday.

Anniversary will mostly consist of an update to the Mission Architect content-creation system added to the game earlier this month in Issue 14: Architect. New features, content, options and improved usability are all promised. New costumes, faces and mission options for villains and heroes will be included.

The Mission Architect has been a runaway hit with the City of Heroes community, with players generated some 120,000 story-arcs in the weeks since its release.

    Perhaps if NCsoft were to fix their Paypal recurring payment system I would actually be able to play the game for once.

    Why not just call it Issue 14.01, which is what it really is?

    Much as I enjoyed CoH, I think Paragon Studios need to REALLY get their arses into gear. I know MA was a big update but it's been the only major one for a long time.

    I started playing this at the weekend, if only to satisfy my hunger for Super Powered MMOs until Champions Online.
