General Release Heroes – Past Release Dates

The game originally launched with a total Hero roster of 28 recruitable heroes.   After the original launch and in between Spec Ops, Playdom would release new characters for the price of 90 CP.     Black Panther was the first one to be released on 6/8/2012.    Only Quicksilver was the only one to be released at the low cost of 48 CP.     On Average Playdom does 6-8 General Releases per year.  (See table below).    (Yet, as of 6/1/2016 not one has yet been released this year.)

The days between releases would  would vary widely.     Some as low as 7 days between General Release characters (see Wasp and Captain Britain below), and some as long as 177 days (see Thundra and Doctor Voodoo below).    That record is now broken because if Richard Rider would be released tomorrow then it would have been 197 days between him and Elsa Bloodstone’s release back in November 2015.

For new players I highly recommend spending the 90 CP for Richard Rider when he arrives.   Typically because, newer characters are always slightly more powerful when first released (sometimes OP) before they eventually get nerfed.   However, in the meantime enjoy them and get as much PVP value as you can out of them.
