[Arathrael]

NCSoft are opening up their own studio and have bought the IP for City of Heroes from Cryptic:

They're keeping on the key Cryptic staff by the looks of things, so hopefully this shouldn't be too much of a mess.

In the meantime, H.A.M.S.T.E.R. should get a big prestige boost which will be nice - anyone got any alts they need to add to the SG? (or to M.O.N.K.E.H.?) http://www.cityofheroes.com/press/a_new_age.html
