Superhero MMORPG Ship of Heroes To Showcase Free Demo Next Week At Steam Next Fest
Ship of Heroes, the spiritual successor to now-defunct superhero MMORPG City of Heroes, will be available for public testing once again with a free demo during next week’s Steam Next Fest event. The demo will be the game’s tenth public testing event and will be open to everyone, regardless of whether you’ve participated in previous testing rounds.
However, it’s worth noting that it will truly be a demo in both name and content as players will only have access to the character creator and the first Story Blossom story arc.
“The first Sword Blossom story arc focuses on the Engineering department aboard the FHS Justice and their quiet struggle against the Promethean menace and the evil Dr. Cornish,” developer Heroic Games explained. “The arc contains seven missions, culminating in an intense battle to protect the FHS Justice and its inhabitants from assimilation.”
The good news is that you’ll get get a boatload of in-game currency to do with as you please. You’ll also have access to a variety of costume pieces to customize your character’s look. According to Heroic Games, the selection has doubled or tripled since the last beta test, so you’ll have a lot to choose from.
Steam Next Fest will kick off on October 9th and will run until October 16th. In the meantime, you can check out the Ship of Heroes official demo trailer below.
