NCsoft announces the merger of City of Heroes and City of Villains, the complementary super-powered MMORPGs that for some reason had not been consolidated prior to now. They say this will lay the groundwork for future projects to be announced later this year. The City of Heroes Community Site also has word that a double-XP weekend kicks off on Friday. Here's the merger announcement:

Wednesday 16th July, Brighton, UK/... There is a reason for the rejoicing in Paragon City™ and the Rogue Isles™. It is official – NCsoft® has completely merged the two games into one game universe. All current subscribers who only had one of the games (City of Heroes® or City of Villains®) now have access to the features of both games. Additionally, all City of Heroes and City of Villains games for sale at retail or online will grant access to both games.
