Though we had learned that DC Universe Online was to be hitting sometime in November of this year, we had not yet heard an official DCUO release date. Now we have, and it’s November 2nd, 2010, for both the PC and PS3. It was announced at Comic-Con after the “Who Do You Trust?” CG trailer, along with the news that the PS3 version will not require PlayStation Plus to play. This is a welcome relief, as the idea of requiring layered subscriptions is something that some fans might have been concerned about.
Finally, a little bit of teaser information was leaked by game director Chris Cao, regarding players joining the Green Lantern Corps. Apparently, much like the original Jedi system in Star Wars Galaxies, this will be affect only a very small number of players, as the developers don’t want thousands of Green Lanterns running around, and will be a “very special thing.” That’s all the information regarding the apparently cross-promotional Green Lantern theme with next years film that we’re getting for now.
