City of Heroes: Homecoming Defeats Some Bugs in Latest Patch

City of Heroes was recently updated with its first official update since the game shut down in 2012 with Homecoming’s Issue 27, Page 7 patch. While Homecoming, as well as other servers, have been operating and publishing updates for many years now, NCsoft gave the Homecoming team the official license to operate City of Heroes back in January.

The update entered open beta not long after news of the team’s acquisition of the license and was finally released last month.

Titled Issue 27: Second Chances, the marquee features include the finale of Piecemeal’s Personal Story, an overhaul of Striga Isle to make it a co-op zone along with new villain and rogue story arcs, base expansion for the Vanguard base in the Rikti War Zone, and Advanced Mode for the ever popular Lady Grey’s Task Force.

A smaller follow up patch has just been released this week, including fixes for costumes, powers, enemy factions, the user interface, and even some performance tweaks for those who run the game’s 32 bit client.
