Good news, super people. Sony Online Entertainment has announced a partnership with AsiaSoft Corporation to bring DC Universe Online to eight Asian countries. Beginning later this year, gamers in Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Myanmar, Cambodia, and the Philippines will be able to suit up and jump in to enjoy their own dedicated servers, localized customer support, and payment gateways.

“Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and the entire roster of DC Entertainment heroes and villains are among the most recognizable icons in the world. By bringing  DC Universe Online to southeast Asia, more people than ever will be able to gear-up and fight alongside their favorite characters,” said Louis Figueroa, Senior Vice President, Business Development, Sony Online Entertainment.

The announcement only makes mention of the PC version of DC Universe Online, with no apparent plans for hosting on the PS3.
