The Champions Online Official Website outlines a couple of long-term subscription plans for Cryptic's upcoming MMORPG. They will be offering $59.99 six-month subscriptions with an in-game perk as well as $199.99 lifetime subscriptions (we somehow imagine Bill Roper's name will come up in discussing these), which offer additional in-game bonuses. Both plans also offer access to the Star Trek Online closed beta test, and the lifetime plan also offers a "Unique Mirror Universe outfit for Star Trek Online, available at the game’s release," for those planning on subscribing to Cryptic's other upcoming MMORPG along with their lifetime CO deal:

While you’re here, though, take a look at these exclusive specials you’ll get if you sign up for a 6-month or lifetime subscription! When you enter your pre-order key at the bottom of this page, you will be presented with these offers.
