Please read the current update for instructions on downloading the latest update. Players with Mac versions of the game will not be affected, but you will have a slightly longer wait for your version of the new maps. Please make a copy of your character folder before running the new update, just to make sure you don't lose any of your custom work.

It looks like we can give everyone a list of minimum specs for running City of Titans. Please keep in mind that this is 'for now' until we are able to add more graphics and other system refinements. Currently you will need :
Windows 10 or later required; no Intel integrated graphics like UHD, must have AMD or NVIDIA card or discrete chipset with 4Gb or more of VRAM
At least 16GB of main DRAM.
These stats may change as we continue to test.

To purchase your copy of the City of Titans Launcher, visit our store at https://store.missingworldsmedia.com/ A purchase of $50 or more will give you a link to download the Launcher for Windows or Mac based machines.

First impressions test build

Finally got around to trying out the character creator by creating my go-to testing character: my favorite comic book character, Eddie Brock, a.k.a. Venom. I had a feeling I wouldn't be able to completely recreate Venom at this stage, so I settled for a full-body black spandex and exposed head approach.


(Moody backdrop is moody!)


(Don't mind the chest emblem. It's just a stand-in.)

Fiddling about with the anatomy sliders really brought to surface the current limitations and issues with the generator. Labeling on the sliders is tricky to fully grasp and clipping is a major issue, especially when fiddling with the head proportions. However, I was able to recreate a Mark Bagley-esque version of Eddie, so I'm pleased enough.


(This is what really sold me at this point.)


(Recreating Eddie's Fabio-haired look from the '90s)

One of the main issues I take with the creator at this stage is that it's very difficult to create a realistically skinny male model without ending up with a barrel-chested, beer-bellied freakazoid. I get that superheroes are meant to have...superheroic proportions, but you have obesity and age sliders, for cryin' out loud! Let me make a convincing bean-pole hero or villain.


(Bonus Bearded Eddie attempt to recreate his look in Donny Cates and Ryan Stegman's Venom series.

Overall, it's a noble first effort by Missing Worlds Media. I've been following their progress since I first pledged in their Kickstarter however many years ago that was. They'll get there eventually and I'll still be here when they arrive.
