NCsoft has announced the first details on the latest City of Heroes and City of Villains A Stitch in Time expansion. It adds a two new power sets, locations, and gear long time players will definitely appreciate.

The new power sets, Dual Blades and Willpower, are available for Tankers, Scrappers, Brutes, and Stalkers. Dual Blades allow characters to wield two weapons simultaneously. It also adds a new combo system giving players new advantages depending on the order of attacks performed. Will Power on the other hand gives players more resistance, defense, and regeneration all in one package.

The new locations are somewhat varied considering players are given a chance to “Flashback” or return to the past and experience some of the major turning points in Paragon City’s history for themselves. Heroes get a chance to take part in missions like Circle of Thorns where they must stop a demon from entering the world. Villains on the other hand get a chance to help Lord Recluse in taking over the Rogue Isles.

The new gear is pretty solid considering players will be getting new inventions for taunt, buff, debuff powers and more. In addition, very rare purple purple sets have also been thrown in though they haven’t given any details on that yet. Hopefully it will be as good as some of the stuff that was introduced in Issue 10: Invasion.

Issue 11: A Stitch in Time will be released by the fourth quarter of 2007, so we can expect it to arrive before this year ends. While waiting for more news, why not check out some of the screenshots of the expansion below?
