    Mepps can u ask if they can add the 80th anniversary emblem for superman with feat for the week for switch players and players for PC , PS and Xbox that missed it??? Bring it back so it comes the same way as before after completing the raid it can be purchased. Can be for just the weekend or something like that?

    Superman Emblem is long done with for PC, PS4, Xbox players. It'll never return. Best hope is that there is another version, preferably tintable, that'll be made available at some point.

    Maybe it'll be in something like a welcome gifts package for the new Switch players.

    While I don't own a Switch myself, I'm looking forward to this new era of DCUO.

    see? now, that's the spirit! anything that brings new players into the fold, regardless of platform, is good, as far as I'm concerned. the more the merrier, sez I.

    If Mepp's answer still holds true to the question of when the Gotham City Starter Pack will launch:
    Then it should be also included with GU 96.

    will it be cross platform PC/PS4/Switch?
  17. Poetic Play Committed Player

    No, they stated it will be its own server. No cross platform yet.
    Though they said they are not ruling out future cross-platform. (Most likely once Switch players catch up, since we all start level 1 and no CR buy-in on Switch launch.)
  18. Marek Committed Player


    No. Switch is its own server I believe.

    Edit: what poetic said ....

    this would make dcuo very popular and play on the go in a car or a bus or at work on break time!!..
    if they allowed us to go between platforms with our accounts from ps4/pc /xbox to switch .. this would be epic...if this happened..
    but we all know this is not the case which makes me sad :(..
    i had dream! Of playing dcuo at work on my break! :mad:
