With the Marvel Universe Online MMO canned, Cryptic Studios seem to have salvaged what they could from the wreckage and plan to unleash a new wave of heroes and villains. Champions Online would be in direct competition with Cryptic’s own previous creation, City of Heroes that NCsoft is now in possession off with an internal development group made up of ex-Cryptics.
Champions Online will be blasting, flying and zapping its way to the PC with mentioning of consoles too but how this ambition plays out only time can tell.
The next issue of US magazine Game Informer has the scoop and has leaked a few teasers but avid fans of superheroes and evil-doers will just have to wait a little longer.
