Overview
Issue 9, titled Breakthrough, is an upcoming release for the game.
ETA
"Near Q1/Q2" [1], which likely means March/April 2007 time frame. As usual, this is likely to change.
The devs have said that they want to give the issue a longer than normal time on the test server, in order to have additional time to bug fix and tweak the release, especially the Invention System. While a date of release to the test server has not been officially released, it appears to be planned fairly soon.
Confirmed content
More new story content in the new story arc.
Statesman's Task Force
Statesman's Task Force, the hero side equivalent of the Lord Recluse Strike Force as an alternate method for heroes to earn HOs. [2]
New Hamidon Encounter
A new Hamidon encounter is coming where villains will be able participate. New tactics will be required to bring down this threat. Villains will be able to cooperate with defeating Hamidon, and thus acquire Hamidon enhancements in that way as well.
Invention System
The Invention System, where "Players will be able to craft Enhancements and Costume pieces for their characters using recipes, and salvage that they find while adventuring." [3] It has also been stated that the long-rumored "Legacy System", which would allow for additional improvements of level 50 characters, has evolved/been wrapped up into the Invention System. [4]
Auction Houses
Auction Houses for the new Invention Items. Wentworth's Fine Consignments will open its doors in Paragon City while the villains will do their bidding alongside "black-market" trucks placed throughout the Rogue Isles.
Tram Stops
More tram stops are being added, Green Monorail to appear in Skyway City just steps from the Underpass.

Possible content
NONE OF THIS POSSIBLE CONTENT IS CONFIRMED. DO NOT TAKE ANY OF IT AS DOCTRINE!
- Nictus (evil Warshades) and an evil version of Peacebringers for City of Villains, unlocked by getting a villain to level 50.
- Character transfer service (Server to server transfers). (Mentioned by CuppaJo as being close to done, she was hopeing for it to make I8. It did not make it into I8, and may very well be released separately from any issue whenever it is completed.)
- SG TF for hero side bases to be added, possibly sg missions for both sides as well.
