DC Universe Online continues to add in new content, and the next big episode is heading to Switch this month. Long Live the Legion packs in a wealth of things to do, and you can get the complete breakdown in the press release below.

Dimensional Ink Games today announced the launch of Long Live the Legion, the latest event and episode in the popular, free-to-play MMO DC Universe™ Online (DCUO), licensed by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment on behalf of DC.

In this new DCUO action-packed adventure, players join forces with the future’s bravest team, the founding members of the Legion of Super-Heroes! Lightning Lad, Saturn Girl, and Cosmic Boy’s lives are in jeopardy as they confront Mordru, one of the most powerful sorcerers in the universe.

Players will travel to the 31st Century Metropolis,a new open-world area where Validus and the Emerald Empress, members of the notorious Fatal Five, are wreaking havoc on the city. They’ll visit Legion HQ in the four-player Alert to prepare a coordinated assault with this new assembly of century-spanning DC Super Heroes. Then players take the fight to Mordru in the eight-player raid, where they are the last line of defense to save themselves, along with all heroes present and future.

The Long Live the Legion episode for DC Universe Online is now available for PlayStation® 4, Xbox™ One, PC and for Nintendo Switch™ later this month. The episode is free to access for members or available for purchase in the in-game marketplace. For a limited time, special “Event” versions of all content for Long Live the Legion will also be available for free to all players, level 15 and above until the release of our next episode.
