City of Heroes/Villains Issue 12 - Villain Epic Archetypes Teaser Video
NCsoft Europe is pleased to unveil a stunning new teaser video for City of Heroes Issue 12: Midnight Hour. The video
showcases the new Villain Epic Archetypes, known collectively as the Soldiers of Arachnos. The video also introduces the
Wolf Spider and Blood Widow archetypes, both of which have unique powers and skills.
From the soaring skylines of Paragon City to the savage slums of the Rogue Isles, there is only one thing that joins these
two warring sides - the eternal battle of good and evil between them. Rise to the challenge as a hero or sink into the
criminal underworld as a villain in a unique online game played with thousands of other players. The battle has only just
begun.
The Good Versus Evil Combined Edition has both City of Heroes and City of Villains games, including the recent,
massive expansion Issue 7: Destiny Manifest which introduced dynamic player-versus-player zones and one-of-a-kind villain
Mayhem Missions. City of Heroes, allows players to create characters with completely original costumes and powers, then fight
criminals and villains who are terrorising Paragon City. In City of Villains, players get to show off their bad side by
creating villainous characters whose job it is to build a criminal empire and wreak havoc in the Rogue Isles.
In addition to being able to create almost limitless costume styles and hero and villain bases, the Good Versus Evil
Combined Edition provides a wide array of special features, including special in-game prestige travel powers and new hero
and villain costume pieces.
The retail package comes with 45-days of free play after which players only need to pay £8.99 per month to have full access
to both of the games.
The game is out now on PC DVD-ROM for £14.99, plus the online costs as described above.
