“We packed a ton of content into  Halls of Power Part II , introducing all kinds of new characters and really deepening the story. Episode 14 also marks the beginning of change and we’re really excited about our new direction. We want to make content more meaningful to the players and give them more choices, more often. So, we made improvements to the Loot System, adding the ability to choose Rewards, and we’ve simplified Marks of Victory. And, starting later this year we will be releasing content on a monthly basis instead of quarterly,” Jens Andersen, DC Universe Online Senior Creative Director, stated.

STORYLINE: Darkseid is relentless in his efforts to gather ancient artifacts of the Old Gods and has turned his legions on the Celestial City, home of Orion and the New Gods of New Genesis.
