DC Universe Online is officially a run-away success for Sony Online Entertainment (SOE). The company confirmed that its new superhero MMO has become the fastest-selling title in the company’s 16 year history. SOE has also confirmed several fixes, tweaks and new features for DC Universe Online (DCUO) are in the works.
SOE is having a little bit of a problem keeping up with the record-setting demand of DC Universe Online. After launching on the Playstation 3 and PC on January 11th, the title quickly went out-of-stock, with the PS3 scoring 52 percent of the sales. The news was a shock for SOE President John Smedley, considering it’s a paid-subscription MMO.
In an interview with Eurogamer this week, SOE community manager Tony Jones said, “right now, we’re working on server stability, things that keep the game running and going fresh. Things like the UI, they’re going to be constantly making tweaks to that — the best part of an MMO, it changes constantly and we’re very sensitive to the needs of the players”.
Bottom line, Sony has heard the feedback and DC Universe Online members can expect immediate action. If you are currently a subscriber to DC Universe Online, let us know. We’d love to hear your thoughts on the MMO and what features you’d like to see added to the release.
