Champions Online is a superhero MMORPG where you create an original hero and fight villains through missions in Millennium City and other settings.

Fight enemies with your abilities, complete missions, and develop your hero as you level. The game also offers multiplayer activities, including queued encounters and group challenges.
Players who enjoy Champions Online often praise the freedom to design distinctive superheroes, especially through its costume creator and varied powers.
