In the latest content update to Sony Online Entertainment's super hero MMO, DC Universe Online, villains and heroes must band together to fight off a threat from Brainiac, who wants to harness Kryptonian technology to destroy the Earth.

The Fate of the Fortress Update, available now, features the first DC Universe Online raid to take place within the walls of the Fortress. Players continue to fight alongside Superman and Lex Luthor as the battle moves deeper into Superman's arctic hideout, eventually pitting the combatants against Brainiac's Sunstone-powered cyber-soldiers. In this phase of the Fortress raid series, fans of the Man of Steel will be treated to key areas of the Fortress, beginning with the grand entrance foyer containing statues of Jor-El and Lara (Superman's Kryptonian parents), a trip to the Phantom Zone Projector Room, a view of the Sun Crystal Matrix Chamber, and a final battle with Brainiac's most lethal and powerful fighting machine, the Avatar of Meta, which takes place in the Fortress' center, the Power Core room.

Now available, the second Fortress of Solitude content update, The Fate of the Fortress, is included at no additional charge for all active DC Universe Online PC and PlayStation 3 subscribers.

The Fate of the Fortress Game Update features the Fortress of Solitude eight-man group combat Raid that allow players to earn Marks of Krypton good towards purchasing new gear in the Watchtower or Hall of Doom; new pieces to the Wayward Drone set in the Hive Hard Mode Alert, including backplate, thorax, faceted headguard, and gloves - as well as 30 new weapons in the Prismatic set; a new Batcave PvP Map; and the Dueling gameplay mode, which allows players to challenge another Hero or Villain to a one-on-one fight.
