Get Ready For The DCUO Name Reclaim 2023

Name Reclaim 2023!

Finding just the right name for your character can be tough, especially in DCUO where millions and millions of characters have already been created, locking up their millions of names. It's even more frustrating when the character with that perfect name you want is no longer active (or never was). That's where the name reclaim comes in.

Let's Free Up Some Names!

On or around May 11, 2023, we will reclaim names from characters on inactive accounts, freeing up those names so that you or anyone can again use them when creating new characters or renaming existing ones. Here's how that works:

• Characters on accounts that have not logged into the game since April 11, 2022 (or, in the last 12 months) will be renamed.
• Renamed characters will have an underscore and Roman Numeral added to their existing names.
  • Accounts and characters will remain otherwise intact. No characters will be deleted.
• Those names will become automatically available to current players through the regular character creation or rename processes.

Last Chance! Save Your Name!

If you haven't logged in since April 11, 2022, and do not want to lose your characters' names, you have between now and May 11, 2023, to log into the game. Simply logging a character all the way into the game once will preserve every name on every character on your account. 

If you know of friends or league mates who might have stopped playing but would want to keep their names, please help us spread the word before May 11, 2023, so that they won't miss out.

For everyone else, get ready to name or rename your characters with some new, old names!
