DC Universe Online Rolls Out Update 138 And Its Justice League Dark Cursed Episode

DC Universe Online has embraced its dark side in its October update which hit the live servers this past Thursday. Update 138: Justice League Dark Cursed introduced a new episode that revolves around Batman and Constantine as they work to break a powerful curse.

“A powerful curse is burning through the world's most powerful magic users, escalating their powers to dangerously violent extremes! Hoping Batman can take on the hard work, John Constantine’s transported his House of Mystery to overlook Gotham Cemetery, where he and it are now under attack.”

The upcoming episode features new open world missions in Cursed Gotham City, a new solo mission in the Town Square Theater, a new alert where players will be tasked with saving Justice League members trapped in Constantine’s House of Mystery, and a new raid where they’ll team up with Wonder Woman and Circe to confront Hecate in Cursed Themyscira.

The Town Square Theater, Cursed House of Mystery, and Cursed Themyscira events will also be available as event versions that will be open to players Level 20 and above for a limited time. Zatanna, the Mistress of Magic, can now also be summoned as a new ally to help you during combat.

Update 138 also brought back The Witching Hour for its annual Halloween run with new base items, feats, and styles to unlock. The update also made significant adjustments to stabilizers, brought back duo instances, and removed them from Doctor Fate’s daily reward pool. Additionally, Artifact XP now binds to accounts and the Omnibus has been updated to deter exploiters and bot users.

“We believe these changes are necessary to maintain fairness in the game and prevent bad actors from using bots or other means to disrupt legitimate play,” Dimensional Ink Games explained.
