Mutants & Masterminds was published in 2002 the setting, which was once known as Century City, became Freedom City was published in 2003. Presenting a complete game was seen as taking precedence over having a d20 logo on the product, so the decision was made to use the OGL without the d20 license. Releasing the game under the d20 Standard Trademark License, as originally planned, would have prohibited the inclusion of ability generation and character advancement rules. Over time, it became clear to him that the game would need to be released only under the Open Game License. Pramas made the offer to publish the setting if Kenson would also create a superhero game system based on the d20 System. Shopping it around to various publishers, none were interested (superhero game popularity had declined at that time) until he talked to Chris Pramas (President of Green Ronin Publishing) about the setting. Through a series of misfortunes, the project fell through and he was left with a partially completed manuscript. In the late 1990s, Steve Kenson had an idea for a superhero setting that he had been contracted to produce.
