In-game extras for Villains
City of Villains Collector's Edition.
A special Collector's Edition version of City of Villains will be made available across Europe alongside the standard pack at the end of October - and there'll be in-game bonuses for those who pick it up.
The Collector's package will cost £44.99 / €64.99 (compared to £29.99 / €44.99 for the regular edition) and those who buy it will have access to an exclusive in-game cape and chest emblem from Arachnos.
In addition to a DVD version of the game, the Collector's Edition will also include seven limited edition HeroClix figures from WizKids - three hero figures and four villains, including Lord Recluse himself.
Inside the box there'll also be a map of The Rogue Isles, and a book of artwork from both City of Heroes and City of Villains.
Better yet, there'll be two sets of 14-day trial codes for City of Heroes - the idea being that the purchaser can try it out if he or she hasn't already, and also give one to a friend.
NCsoft has yet to confirm what the subscription fees will be for City of Villains players, but last Thursday lead designer Jack Emmert said players won't be expected to pay double the regular rate, and we should expect an announcement soon.
