City of Heroes MMO.

So long story short, City of Heroes ended up closing down (the MMO, as many have). However, some folks found the source code and got it up and running for free. Been doing so for a few years.

Well Jan 4, 2024 - NCSoft, the makers of City of Heroes, saw what these guys were doing and gave them an official license - meaning, they can never get a cease and desist order. For all intents and purposes, they're the official City of Heroes.

And it's all free. EVERYTHING is unlocked. No need for ingame purchases, expansions - everything is unlocked day 1.

If this toots your horn - join the game! (I am on the Everlasting server, myself)

One of the characters I've made is named "Vindicated" (or something) to make him look like Mac... another is Wytchfyre (to, duh, make her like Witchfire, but I gave her red hair because it matched the whole red skin and horns better)... among many others.
