DC Universe Online patches in vendor discounts and its Valentine’s event

Love is in the air in DC Universe Online with the game’s latest patch, which is happening today. It might be happening right now as you read this, with the game’s servers going down at 8:30 a.m. EST and downtime expected for up to eight hours. But when the servers come back up, you can spread the love… to your alts, who you presumably love. The game’s vendor discount is going live with this update, you see, so it’s going to cost you less to equip your alts in vendor sets.

If you’d prefer a more conventional celebration of affection, you can take part in the game’s Valentine’s Day event with the arrival of the Star Sapphires, who may have wound up giving Mr. Freeze an opportunity to put the entirety of Gotham City in danger for the sake of his wife. Yeah, that plan didn’t work out so great. There’s new stuff available on the holiday event vendor for players who take part in the event, so enjoy a new daily race, seasonal missions, and possibly scolding the heck out of the aforementioned Star Sapphires.
