Cryptic's "Revelation" about Champions Online!

Posted by Jason Triplett Thursday, February 11, 2010


Cryptic Studios has finally decided to make their first expansion pack for Champions Online FREE in the face of massive protest from the gaming community. Cryptic Executive Producer Bill Roper had the following to say:

Recently, there has been a lot of internal debate regarding the Revelation expansion and how it should be delivered to our community. Simply, Revelation represents some of the best work to date on Champions. The expansion features an epic storyline filled with noble heroes and terrifying villains and it's set in gorgeous new environments. We've also incorporated many suggestions from the community on what they want: new gameplay areas, new powers, new rewards, and more challenging gameplay are just some of the additions.

And so, while we may have originally built Revelation to be a paid expansion pack, we reconsidered our decision based on recent community discussion. Our community means everything to us and if we can make them happy, we will.

I'd like to reassure everyone that going free does not in any way imply Revelation is unworthy of a price tag. It is still legitimate expansionary content -- same as ever. Now it's just very, very nicely priced expansionary content. No better price than free, right?


We'll be releasing more information on Revelation very soon. Until then, start leveling up your Champions!
