In preparation for the upcoming PS4 version of DC Universe Online (available at launch), Sony Online Entertainment has completely revamped the graphics of their free-to-play MMO. PS3 players will see some benefit, but the biggest impact will be seen on PlayStation 4 and PC. DCUO executive producer Larry Liberty promises that Update 31 will offer a "sweeping, game-wide graphical upgrade," calling it "without a doubt the biggest technical update we have ever done." Specifically, the level of detail on textures has been revamped. "That's perhaps nowhere more obvious than when observing the Earth from the Watchtower," Liberty said. PS4 players will be able to transfer their content and play with PS3 players, making it an easy migration for PlayStation gamers. Here, look at more screens:

    Fuck it, I'll play. Hit level 20 a few times on PC but never felt too engaged.

    I'll give it a try, though I always find it a little suspicious when a game is coming out today and shows off screens instead of video.

    I liked it a lot, especially for free to play.

    Do I have to restart from the beginning or can I import my characters? Because I don't want to have to do that goddamned training mission for a fourth and fifth time.
