Comic-Con International San Diego 2010 Activity Schedule
Stop by the NCsoft® booth (#5345) at Comic-Con International San Diego to meet members of the Aion® staff, members of the City of Heroes® development and community teams, and the artists and developers of Guild Wars 2®. They'd love to chat with you and answer any questions that you have about their games. You can also play City of Heroes Going Rogue™ or Aion 1.9 on PCs provided by Alienware and with awesome peripherals from Razer.
Current players of City of Heroes can pick up a City of Heroes Ghoul costume code while supplies last. Pick up an Aion trial card to play at home, or grab a celebratory City of Heroes lenticular Hero/Villain button honoring City of Heroes Going Rogue. Bring your camera and pose with life-sized Aion wings (to see how you look as a Daeva) or with the stunning Desdemona of City of Heroes Going Rogue. Find out how you could have your in-game City of Heroes character immortalized in ink by Art Lead David "Noble Savage" Nakayama.
You can also sign up to attend the City of Heroes Going Rogue Meet & Greet preview event to be held on Friday, July 23, 2010 in San Diego. Visit the City of Heroes official website to sign up.
Join members of the Aion team and fellow players for a Fan Gathering at Dave and Busters on July 22 for games, food, and a chance to score even more limited edition Aion swag! For more information, head on over to AionOnline.com
