City Of Heroes Vigilantly Launches Issue 15
By Dr. Eleanor Vance | Published on October 12, 2025
The heroes are much more heroic and the villains exponentially more vile with the release of City of Heroes Issue: 15: Anniversary, with cosmetic changes and mission architect tweaks the order of the day.
Aside from a new 5th Column Task Force / Strike Force series of missions, the bulk of the Issue 15 update for NCsoft’s superhero MMO is dedicated to making characters look their best and making it easier to use the mission architect player-created content tool introduced in Issue 14: Architect.
On the cosmetic side of things, players now have more than 20 new faces to choose from in character creation along with two new costume sets – vines and ulterior – making an already ridiculously versatile system even more so. They’ve also added new costume change emotes, allowing players to back flip, salute, or maniacally laugh their way out of their clothes.
NCsoft also updates their mission architect system, adding new testing tools to help iron out the kinks and enhanced search capability to help players separate the wheat from the u31 chaff.
Considering the major changes that came about with h25 the last update, Issue 15 seems rather tame, but with u31 the massive Going Rogue update next in line for release, we can forgive the odd lighter than normal offering.

I wish there were more free spins available, but even with the current promotions, I have a lot of fun. The themed slot games are creative and engaging, keeping the gameplay fresh and entertaining every day.
