Marvel Heroes Omega Getting ShutteredJason Love

Officially, no reason has been given as to why Marvel/Disney decided to end things and revoke the license for the game. In the email to Kotaku, the Marvel representative merely stated "We regret to inform our Marvel Heroes fans that we have ended our relationship with Gazillion Entertainment, and that the Marvel Heroes games will be shut down." Later in the day, an official post was made on the game's forums stating that the final day would be December 31, 2017, and that they would be "...removing real money purchases as soon as possible. Players will be able to play the game entirely for free once this sunset period commences." There's been no statement thus far as to what will happen to Gazillion itself.

Between Injustice 2 and Marvel Heroes Omega, superheroes are on the rise. Of course, there's still the every day heroes you'll find in the likes of Overwatch and the cybernetic ones in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.

On Tuesday, the PlayStation 4 version of Marvel Heroes Omega officially kicked over from closed beta to open beta. It's free to download and play from the PSN store right now, along with a free character (Daredevil). Next month, Xbox One players will be able to get in on the action, too. The closed beta for Marvel Heroes O...

That's right, we've got codes for all five of the Founders' Packs (North America only, I'm afraid) that are available for sale on PSN for Marvel Heroes Omega, and we'll be giving all of those codes to one lucky person. That's about $200 worth of stuff and whoever wins will be getting all of this:

There are a total of 10 codes to give away and you can enter once a day to try and win one until all the codes are gone, or until the contest ends at 11:59 PM EDT on Friday, May 5, 2017. These codes are only good for the North America version (sorry EU) on the PlayStation 4. Unlike the Founder's Pack codes that unlock some heroes and give you some of the premium currency, these codes will just get you access to the closed beta itself. No bonuses. That being said, you'll be given enough Eternity Splinters (the in-game currency used to purchase heroes) to buy a hero or two once you clear out the initial tutorial.

I bought into the closed beta so I could check it out over the weekend. Coming from the PC version, it's rather interesting to see what's different. The game as a whole feels more streamlined, which I suppose is to be expected as Gaz is focusing on the "core" elements of the title for now. I've yet to level a character to 60 to see what the end game content is like, but with only one patrol zone and no weekly in-game events yet, I don't expect there to be very much for now. There are a lot of little changes from the PC to console, such as changing up hero synergies and the bonuses certain gear grants you, but none of that is necessarily a bad thing. In fact, some changes, such as the in-game currencies being reduced to just three (one for buying heroes, one for buying items from vendors, and one that only becomes available at 60 for buying special items), means that the title is easier to approach for newcomers.

The game will be making its way over to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One sometime this year, though it will not have quite the same number of features as its PC cousins. Instead of the current roster of 62 playable heroes, Marvel Heroes Omega will only have 38. The story will only span chapters one through nine (PC goes to 10), there will be only one challenge/patrol area (Midtown), the (somewhat) recently added Danger Room will be available, but neither of the two raids will be part of the title at launch.
