TheChampions OnlineWinter Event is go. Dubbed “Attack of the Misfit Toys,” this bit of seasonal content brings ushers in a new villain named Black Harlequin and an equally villainous (and mechanical) teddy bear toy. We’re not ones to linger on basic MMO enemies, but damn, this dude looks f’ing hardcore.
But this isn’t all that is going on inChampions Online. According to an official release sent out last afternoon, developer Cryptic Studios have kicked off a referral program that allows referred players to rock out in the MMO for ten days without dishing out coin. When a recruit buys the game, the referrer nets an extra costume slot and 400 Cryptic Moon Bucks. Sounds like it’s time to push your crack on your buddies.
Speaking of crack, a free and branded iPhone App is slated to hit in the future. If you need to stay in contact with this game at all times — and who doesn’t — give this thing a spin: it collectsChampions Onlinenews, and apparently allows cross-platform communication.
Chances are you won’t be able to talk to mecha-teddy, though. Too bad. This guy looks like he has a lot to say.
