Champions Online News - Blood Moon Preview!

Posted by Michael Bitton on Oct 14, 2009  | 5 comments in our forums

The Champions Online Blood Moon page has received a major update! The new page is a one-stop shop for all your Blood Moon information needs, including links to recent Blood Moon dev diaries, the power list for the new Celestial powerset, details on the new event perks and item rewards, and a bevy of new screenshots; some of which feature characters sporting some snazzy new costume pieces!

Here's a rundown of what you can expect in Blood Moon, which will be hitting live servers on October 27th, and will run through to November 10th:

  • New Power Set: Celestial! Our first new power set being added to Champions Online, Celestial is a support and healing based set with dual-purpose abilities.
  • Dawn of the Undead Heroes! Takofanes has trapped the souls of the Heroes who fell during the Battle of Detroit and are commanding them to spread ruin across Millennium City! Players who can save all 13 Undead Heroes will unlock the Celestial power set two weeks before anyone else!
  • BITE! Players will have the chance to join the Wolf Hunters and rid the land of the abominable Werewolves. However, falling to one of the beasts will force you to rise under the curse and become one yourself.
  • Rise of Takofanes! The Undying Lord has risen, and is appearing throughout Millennium City. Those who are strong enough to defeat his retinue will receive unique perks and rewards only available during the Blood Moon event.
  • Zombie Apocalypse! A brand new PvP map is here to stay! Survive as long as you can as endless waves of zombies approach, but beware, because those defeated will rise as a zombie and become the enemy.

We've also updated our gallery with all the juicy new shots, check them out here!
