You could say that WildStar’s recent Heroes Evolved update added a few things to the game. Besides the opportunity for players to buy a level 50 character, the update introduced a number of quality of life improvements, such as making some things account-wide, being able to mail stuff to alts (including alts of the opposing faction!), and the ability to add additional paths to your character to switch between. On top of that, there are new race/class combinations (for those who want to play something a little different on a new character) as well as the ability to swap to another race or even gender (for playing something different on an existing character).
If you have an hour to spare, devs hosted a livestream to highlight these new features, and you can kick back and watch the entire replay here, complete with race and gender swap demonstrations.
