NCsoft: COH is a "flourishing franchise"

NCsoft has responded to yesterday's City of Heroes 2 trademark sighting. There was no direct comment, but the MMO specialist was happy to hint at a long future ahead of the series.

"City of Heroes is a flourishing franchise and continues to be the world's most popular superhero MMO," NCsoft told Eurogamer.

"While we cannot comment on City of Heroes 2 at this time, NCsoft is proud of City of Heroes' success and is looking forward to future product launches associated with the franchise."

The publisher added that the next expansion, City of Heroes: Going Rogue, will be released in July.
