MMORPG.com Community Manager Michael Bitton recently had the opportunity to attend a roundtable discussion between DC Universe Online developers and several members of the media. The discussion focused on the just announced 'Lightning Strikes' DLC pack as well as the recent switchover to Free-to-Play.

First on the agenda, of course, was the upcoming DLC.  ‘Lightning Strikes’ is the second DLC pack for DC Universe Online and will focus on iconic DC speedster The Flash. You see, the Pied Piper and Abracadabra are messing with hero and villain origins, and it will be up to players to make sure that Barry Allen becomes, well, The Flash! If you’re wondering why villains would want to help The Flash come to be, SOE explained that Flash villain Professor Zoom would also never come to be if The Flash’s origin is messed with, so it is in his interest (you are working for him as a villain) that Barry becomes everyone’s favorite speedster.
