Scowly!

DC Universe Online’s game update 95 has gone live as of last night, and it gives players the opportunity to put their superheroic skills to the test with the introduction of Survival Mode. Kicking off its first season, Survival Mode throws players into Titan’s Training Sim, where they will face off in some of the “most difficult battles DCUO has ever seen.”

In this new game mode, players will have to fight to survive 30 grueling rounds of combat, each of which consists of two waves of three minions followed by a challenging boss at the end of each round. Should players rise to the challenge and emerge victorious, they will be rewarded with a new currency, Data Chips. These Data Chips can be exchanged at the Survival Mode Vendor and Survival Mode Season Vendor for a variety of valuable and unique rewards, including materials, auras, base items, style items, orbitals, and pets.

And for fledgling superheroes, the update also introduces a completely revamped tutorial that will see newcomers joining forces with either Superman or Lex Luthor as they fight their way off of Brainiac’s ship while “[learning] how to use [their] powers in a more streamlined experience.” The new-player experience will also be further improved by the addition of the Universal Messaging System, which will provide players with tutorial tips to help them learn about various gameplay elements and notify them of new and ongoing events. For the full details on the update’s new additions, you can find the complete patch notes on the game’s official forums.
