DC Universe Online’s third DLC pack, The Battle for Earth, is coming to the PC and PS3 on March 13. The Battle for Earth offers players an all-new Earth Powers set and a new storyline with more action and epic battles, and sets up players for the ultimate showdown with Brainiac.
DLC #3 will be available for free for the game’s Legendary members and available for purchase for Free and Premium players from the PlayStation Network, through the in-game Marketplace, and on the PC from the DCUniverseOnline.com website.
The Battle for Earth delivers thrilling raids, duos, captivating adventures and opens up a new chapter featuring a pair of the most legendary DC Universe figures ever — from the future. DC Universe Online players can look forward to new open world content, Duos, an Alert, and two Raids:
- ◊ Themyscira – Experience a new Raid on Wonder Woman’s home island that pits players against Chimeric Brainiacs and, ultimately, the deadly Avatar of Magic. Players will fight alongside mythical creatures such as Cyclops, Hydra and Colossus, while simultaneously protecting key units of Amazons and Beastimorphs.
- ◊ South Gotham Brainiac Invasion – Supercharged action continues as players battle Brainiac’s invasion force in the streets of South Gotham, the Courthouse Alert and new Duos. Working to stop Brainiac’s Union — formed by the people trapped inside the bottled buildings – who are constructing Proto-Avatars to assault Gotham, players will be challenged to rise up and defend Earth against Brainiac’s final assault.
- ◊ The Prime Battleground – The Battle for Earth storyline leads players in to an epic battle in which they must fight all three of Brainiac’s newly completed Prime Avatars, and then Brainiac himself. Heroes will fight for the safety of the Earth and its inhabitants, while Villains will want to defeat Brainiac and expand the influence of evil across the planet.
- ◊ Earth Powers – Rumble on to the scene and shake things up with DCUO’s ninth power set. Earth Powers can be used for both Tanking and Damage and features an exciting new Tanking mechanic that defers damage to a player’s constructs and automatons. Geokinesis abilities give players the ability to shape Earthen constructs to crush enemies and reinforce allies while Seismic abilities allow players to call mighty, Earth-shaking forces to rattle and daze opponents.
