Announcement: Update Delay but Exciting Features Ahead!

Dear Heroes and Villains,

We want to take a moment to update you on the release schedule for our highly anticipated update, Rebirth Issue 7 The Coming Storm. While we initially planned to launch this fall, we’ve determined that we need more time to ensure everything meets our high standards. We now expect the update to be ready for you in 2025.

We know this delay may be disappointing, but we’re committed to delivering the most ambitious post-sunset update for City of Heroes that you've ever experienced. To give you a taste of what's to come, we’re excited to share a sneak peek at some of the new features:

• New Hand-Crafted Zone: Explore Kallisti Wharf, a brand-new zone filled with engaging content, including:
• New and familiar enemies
• Radio and newspaper missions
• New Safeguard and Mayhem missions
• New contacts, each with unique story arcs
• Over a dozen new mission maps
• Many new badges to earn and showcase your achievements

But wait, there's more (that we can reveal now)...

• Full-Color Costume Customization: Unleash your creativity with even more new costume pieces and vibrant customization options.

We appreciate your understanding as we navigate some real-life challenges that have impacted our team’s schedule. Many of our developers have stepped up as heroes in their communities—providing hurricane relief, caring for elders, battling personal health issues, and navigating unexpected life events. Despite these challenges, our commitment to delivering an incredible gaming experience remains unwavering.

Thank you for your continued support and patience. We can’t wait to share more updates with you soon!

Stay heroic (or villainous),

The Rebirth Team
