Homecoming Servers is a Video game developer that operates in a non-profit capacity*, specializing in the operation, preservation, and expansion of the City of Heroes MMORPG. Homecoming has been developing City of Heroes on a volunteer basis since their founding on May 7, 2019.
History
Homecoming: City of Heroes began as a secret server named SCoRE, operating for 6 years before its existence was leaked in April 2019.[1] The leak ended up splitting the community: some were relieved it was back, while others were angered that they had been lied to.[2] Shortly after the leak they spun up their first server aptly named Torchbearer.
On January 4th, 2024, they obtained a Limited License with NCSoft to continue development on the game in an official capacity.[3][4][5] They assured that they would still remain F2P and funded by donations.
