DC Universe Online Delayed Until 2011


Sorry Preorderers...

Holy batjinks, Batman! It’s a letter from The Riddler! It reads,

Dear Batman and Robin,

No doubt you’ve put down fifty or sixty bucks on the upcoming MMO DC Universe Online, with the hopes of playing it this November. You’ll find that I have stolen all of the DC Universe Preorders and have hidden them in a location that neither you or your insipid heroes will ever find without my help. If you want any chance of finding your precious preorders by early 2011, you will need to follow this riddle. The answer lies in a 1979 song by new wave band Oingo Boingo.

Thanks to the hijinks of the Riddler, DC Universe Online will not be launching this November. Instead, the title has been pushed to sometime in early 2011, whatever that might mean. If you’ve preordered the game, you’ll find yourself with a guaranteed spot in the ongoing beta. Other than that, you’re out of luck for the full version. Look at it this way, you’ll get that much more time playing the (albeit broken and unfinished) game that much longer!

Looking forward to more information on DC Universe.
