New Event & Episode: Earth 3
A strange visitor has come to our planet, with a warning of a mirrored universe opposite to our own that could threaten the lives of all on our Earth. You’ll need to work with both the Justice League and Lex Luthor in a tentative alliance to combat this threat, even if it means journeying to the Earth of this alternate universe and finding the unexpected darkness that awaits! The episode features several exciting new missions in a new open world environment, as well as normal and Elite versions of a new Duo, a new Operation, and two new Raids!

Earn new feats, discover new collections, and fight for new high-level gear inspired by Johnny Quick and more! To get started, look for Earth 3 in your Mission Journal, once you have the required Combat Rating of 207. Earth 3 is free to access for Members.

Superman – Refreshed!
We’ve dramatically updated our Superman model in DCUO. Superman is now new and improved for not only Earth 3, but all prior DCUO content as well (with the exception of Legends Superman, who has not changed).

Updated Comms
We’ve updated how the Comms display for several key characters in DCUO for Episode 30, and will be rolling out updated versions of Comms for our remaining characters as well in the near future! These new Comms simplify the older Comms system and are meant to be more like an avatar representation for each of these characters rather than the traditional “talking head” system. With this release, we have new Comms in place for:
 * Superman
 * Wonder Woman
 * Batman
 * Lex Luthor
 * Alexander Luthor

Artifacts

 * Fixed passive proc abilities triggering before unlocking at Rank 80.

UI

 * Marketplace: If you launch the in-game marketplace, and it does not load within five seconds, you are now able to cancel the load attempt.
 * Inventory (Artifacts)
 * Improved readability of Reagent XP popup text.
 * Progress bar item XP preview should no longer get wonky on the bottom side when loading extreme amounts Reagent XP in the hopper.
 * Left clicking on left pane of the artifacts interface will no longer cause your mouse to rotate the paperdoll in the items pane.
