DC Universe Online Announces Origin Crisis

DC Universe Online is still going on I guess. The video game has announced some new DLC Origin Crisis. The seventh DLC pack for the game has heroes behind Batman and villains behind Lex Luthor to preserve or prevent the origin of various characters. There will also be a new power set, Quantum, will also be in play, giving users the ability to “Manipulate time, control gravity and twist the very fabric of space itself!”

Our focus in Origin Crisis and what makes me so excited to finally share it with you is the return of deep, comic book storylines and challenging group content. In Origin Crisis, this means two new Origin Operations per faction, in alternate versions of Gotham City and Metropolis, and two powerful Raids across time itself. Timelines are distorted, the past is in ruins, and the future is in jeopardy.

How would Gotham City and Metropolis change if Batman’s and Superman’s origin stories were fundamentally…different? You’ll get to find out. You’ll get to stand in Crime Alley on that fateful night when the Waynes were gunned down in front of a young Bruce. You’ll get to storm the House of El to reach the rocket destined to carry Kal’El to Earth. And then you’ll get to decide – what actions will you take to tip these events toward the side of good or evil?

Then you’ll follow Future Batman or Future Lex Luthor in a war across time and against each other to alter the origins of countless iconic heroes and villains. But there is a cost to corrupting time, and a greater threat lurks within – the Paradox created as a result of your actions. Only you have the power to stop it before it destroys reality itself. Will you survive the Paradox Wave?

Sounds like some potentially cool DLC.
