About DC Universe Online?

DC Universe Online is an MMORPG set in the fictional universe of DC Comics. The game features a shared public space where heroes and villains coexist, and dynamically-generated content is designed to cater to both character types. Players must choose a mentor for their character, either a hero or a villain, which will influence their starting location, principal quest rewards, and mob loot. The starting zones are Metropolis or Gotham City for both heroes and villains, with additional access to the Justice League Watchtower for heroes and the Secret Society of Super Villains headquarters at the Hall of Doom for villains. Additionally, each character is equipped with a communicator specific to their faction, through which they receive urgent communications from their mentor and colleagues within the game universe.
