This DLC, Episode 4: The Last Laugh, extends the core DC Universe Online experience by focusing on The Joker's plot to disrupt Hero and Villain safe houses, requiring the base game for access. Released in 2012, it adds Tier 3 cooperative Duo missions, including one in the Shady Nightclub and another in a Police Station, providing endgame challenges for established characters. This episode is notable as the final performance for Arleen Sorkin as Harley Quinn.
The central theme of this episode revolves around The Joker successfully infiltrating both the established safe houses utilized by Heroes and those used by Villains. This intrusion is designed to escalate existing tensions and sow further discord between the player factions within the game world.
For players invested in the established lore, this episode marks a notable moment in voice acting history, as it features the final recorded performance of Arleen Sorkin as the iconic character Harley Quinn.
This DLC introduces specific, high-level cooperative missions designed for players who have reached the Tier 3 progression level. These missions offer new challenges and opportunities for character advancement:
These Duos provide focused, two-player scenarios that integrate directly into the existing combat and mission structure of the parent game, offering new objectives and rewards relevant to the current power level cap at the time of its release.
As a DLC, this content is not standalone. It is an episodic addition that layers new story missions, environments, and challenges onto the existing framework of DC Universe Online. Players utilize their existing characters, powers, and gear to engage with the new content, which is structured around specific power tiers.
The scope of this release is focused on delivering specific, high-tier endgame encounters rather than introducing entirely new systems or massive world zones, offering a substantial narrative and gameplay challenge for established players.
This specific release, Episode 4: The Last Laugh, is presented as a singular content drop. It does not include any further bundled DLCs, expansions, or remasters associated directly with this package.
