The latest update for DC Universe Online has a lot for players to do, including new missions and a brand new Survival Mode.

DC Universe Online’s new update drops April 6 for Members (to become one, go here ) and will be available for everyone else in the Marketplace on April 13.

Episode 23 of DCU Online will continue the New Gods storyline as your character reports to the battle site to defend against Darkseid’s forces in a two-player campaign. “The Will of Darkseid” allows for new feats, collections and gear so be sure to participate.

If you’re wondering how to enter the next episode of DCU Online, your character must be level 30 and have a minimum Combat Rating of 150. Then, you can open your On Duty menu and look for the new Duo under Tier 7 of the two-player tab.

Alongside the new episode, there’s also a new eight-player operation called “Brainiac’s Bottle Ship” where your character teams up with Supergirl to take on Zod. Again, you’ll gain access to new feats, collections and gear and is free for Members.

Like Episode 23, your character must be at level 30 and have a minimum Combat Rating of 150. Open your On Duty Menu and look for the new Operation under Tier 7 of the eight-Player Tab.

With the new update comes Survival Mode, where your hero/villain will be put to the test as unending waves of powerful enemies are pit against you until you eventually fall. Unique style rewards will go to those who last the longest, and you can even grab some neat Kryptonian-themed pants and shirts.

There are 20 rounds in total for Survival Mode and your character will need to have a combat rating of 146.

Here are the rest of the changes coming to DCU Online that accompany update 59, courtesy of the official website. Check out the changes and let us know your thoughts in the comments section.

Game Update 59

Loot Choice UI Available In All Tiers!

We have extended our Loot Choice UI to the earlier tiers of DCUO! Now all solos, duos, alerts and raids available in the On Duty menu have this feature added. This gives players the opportunity to choose what loot they receive from bosses. Upon defeating a boss, the player will be presented with a new UI that allows them to choose from a list of available loot. After the main choice has been made, the UI will then display all items received from the KO.

Tutorial Updates!

With Game Update 59, we have made adjustments to the tutorial instance at the start of the game. Important messaging has been updated to be clearer and more instructional for the player. A full list of improvements and updates are included in the full public notes.
