NCsoft Europe has unveiled plans for the largest tournament the City of Heroes community has ever seen. The tournament will take place over several months, with players from all over Europe taking part. The tournament named the Super Summer Slam Spectacular (S4) will offer something for all heroes.

S4 will be split into three stages:

Stage One

Designing a set of costumes for a team of five heroes to wear into battle.

Stage Two: The Pentad Cup

A series of matches in Paragon City’s PvP arenas.

Stage Three: Grand Final

Fought amongst the winners from each server to be crowned European Champion.

For the first round of prizes we have already confirmed, amongst other things, first editions of the City of Heroes comic signed by the writer and artist, places in the City of Villains Beta, and exclusive high-quality prints of the winning costumes,” says Stephen Reid, Content and Community Manager, NCsoft Europe. “Everyone playing City of Heroes in Europe is welcome to take part, and we’re looking forward to seeing some great costumes – and some huge battles!
