The BIG NEWS!

Well for the past few days there was talk about something BIG in the works. Couldn't say what it was... but people had plenty of guesses. Something new. Something wonderful. Something EARTH-SHATTERING!

So this week it came out...

THE MULTIVERSE IS BACK!

Oh wait... sorry, that was DC Comics.

CAPTAIN AMERICA IS BACK!

No... that's Marvel Comics.

YOUNGBLOOD IS...

Oh, that's Image... and of course if Liefeld is doing it, you can probably expect that to be delayed to infinity again.

No no... THE REAL BIG NEWS IS....

NC Soft now owns 100% of the City of Heroes and City of Villains franchise!

For the longest time, NC Soft has been working with Cryptic Studios on the City of Heroes/City of Villains operation. NC Soft provided the network and financing, and Cryptic would provide the content. Now NC Soft has picked up the whole operation, including most (but not all) of the developers from Cryptic.

So what does that mean? Well it means that NC Soft will be calling the shots now instead of it being a joint operation. They have their own special studio set up just for City of X and the key people are excited about being able to bring the whole game to the next level of interaction.

There are plenty of things in the works right now... and Battlerock X has his ear to the ground on this! So keep checking in with the Chronicles, because things ARE happening!
