Double XP and Re-activation Weekend Starting March 4th!
Get excited because one of your favorite times of the year is quickly approaching - Double XP Weekend! All the fun begins on March 4th!
What is a Double Experience Weekend? It's a three day stretch of time during which all participating Hero and Villain characters receive double the XP, Influence, and Infamy for their accomplishments in game. All you have to do is log in and take advantage of this opportunity to level up your favorite characters twice as quickly as normal! And if you pre-purchase Going Rogue, you'll be able to take advantage of all that Double XP has to offer while wielding the Dual Pistols power set!
But it doesn't end there. NCsoft is also having an Account Reactivation at the same time! This means that all inactive accounts in good standing will be re-activated free of charge and given access to City of Heroes and City of Villains® during Double XP weekend! So grab your friends and loved ones and get them back into the game so that you can play and rack-up the phat loot together!
If you or any of your friends haven't played in a while, visit the City of Heroes Website for all the latest game news. Download the PC game client or the Mac game client, or visit the official message forums for a wealth of other information.
- Double XP and Re-activation Weekend Start: Thursday, March 4th at 8:59am Pacific Time (11:59am Eastern Time)
- Double XP and Re-activation Weekend End: Sunday, March 7th at 11:59pm Pacific (2:59am Eastern Time)
Please note: if your account expires after the reactivation weekend has started, it will not be automatically reactivated. To participate in the Double XP Weekend, you will need to reactivate your account via the usual method. Please check the NCsoft Knowledge Base (European Knowledge Base available here) for more information on how to reactivate your game account.
We hope you take advantage of all the advantages a Double XP/Reactivation Weekend has to offer! Enjoy and have fun...see you in-game on March 4th!
