City of Villains: No Additional Monthly Fees

by Ingrid on October 6th, 2005

The City of Villains newsletter just arrived in my inbox, and lo and behold: awesome news! NCSoft announced that there will be no additional monthly fees for City of Heroes subscribers who purchase City of Villains:

Last night we announced some BIG news. City of Heroes® subscribers will pay no additional monthly fee to play City of Villains™. For City of Heroes® players who purchase City of Villains™, simply add the City of Villains™ serial code to your existing City of Heroes® account using the UPGRADE button on your PlayNC™ account management page… and set off for The Rogue Isles™! To do this, be sure to follow the instructions for ‘Existing City of Heroes® Account Holders’ on the City of Villains™ pre-order instruction page.

City of Villains™ is also available as a stand-alone game. Players who do not own City of Heroes® and players who choose not to upgrade their existing City of Heroes® account will pay the full monthly fee (same price structure as City of Heroes®).

I do love NCSoft. The question here (for me) is not whether to get City of Villains … but whether to get the Standard or Collector’s Edition…

Decisions, decisions.

    My roommate is currently in the beta and it looks pretty cool. He rolled his normal character except now she’s “Evil” because her clothes have spikes and I think she’s got a tattoo or something. I dunno. Plus the whole summon the legion of the undead thing(read: zombie) Yes…he plays a female character. I’m sure it’s just because he’s a loser who.er..umm. I’m sure he has his reasons ;)
