Daybreak Game Company has announced that DC Universe Online is coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S at some point in 2023.
The news comes following the 12th anniversary of DC Universe Online (yes, it’s really been that long since the game first launched), where the studio revealed its plans for the next few months. “Work will continue on our next gen console releases for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, due later this year,” said Daybreak Game Company.
Before the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions however, DC Universe Online users will be able to tuck into a bunch of new DLC, beginning with Shock to the System in Q1. This will offer the following:
- SHOCK TO THE SYSTEM will offer normal and elite versions of On Duty content, along with level-agnostic event versions available for a limited time.
- The content will include open world missions and world bosses, with a duo, alert, and raid.
- The episode will feature DC and Milestone characters including Static, Ebon, Rocket, DeSaad, and more.
- The storyline will include adventures centered around the new Dakota City and written by acclaimed comic book writer Leon Chills.
- The episode will launch new player rewards, including gear, styles, and more.
Daybreak Game Company is also working on a new emotes system, allowing players to collect new emotes and animations to better express yourself during the game.
DC Universe Online is coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S later this year, although an exact release date has yet to be announced.
