City of Heroes, you can no longer be special and unique with your tatty old game launcher!

In an effort to bring all of their players together under one universal launcher, NCsoft is certainly not above some good old fashioned bribery, and they're asking all long-time CoH players who have been using CoH's independent updater to switch over to the universal NCsoft Launcher. By switching, not only will you gain access to the new launcher's fancy technology (ooooh, background downloading), but the team at Paragon Studios will also give you the new Wisp Aura... for free!

In reality, this switch looks like it's going to be mandatory, but if you switch over now, you'll get a shiny new Wisp Aura!
