SAN DIEGO – Sept. 18, 2012 – Sony Online Entertainment LLC (SOE) today announced that Hand of Fate,the fifth downloadable content (DLC) pack for DC UniverseOnline (DCUO), is now available for download on the PC and PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system. At the bidding of Doctor Fate or the evil sorcerer Felix Faust, players will undertake Operations – six intense new episodes designed for group play featuring three Heroic and three Villainous – that will take high level players back out to the iconic, open-world cities of Gotham City and Metropolis. Additionally, a wealth of new side missions will be featured, providing more fun and depth to the game's storyline and world. Hand of Fate also provides players with new Utility Belt Attachments and debuts magic-powered Legends PvP characters, bringing a tale of magic and mystery to life.

"The fact that this is our fifth major downloadable content pack showcases our commitment to expanding the immersive player experience through regular content updates," said Jens Andersen, creative director on DC Universe Online. "Hand of Fate is unlike anything we've offered to date. From the very beginning, it was designed to draw players back out to our massive open-world cities and allow them to experience them in new, unexpected ways. We are pleased with what we have come up with and can't wait to hear what the players think."

Hand of Fate provides players with hours of new adventures and content:

  • Utility Belt Attachments Utility Belt Attachments expand the trinket load-out from one to up to four slots, allowing players to equip multiple trinkets, toys, pets, and consumables at once. All Utility Belt Attachments have at least two slots, while some also have upgradeable slots!
