Press release
Demons of London beware... your reign of terror is coming to an end.
Electronic Arts, Namco Bandai Games, and Flagship Studios are excited
to announce that Hellgate™: London has gone to gold master and will be
available exclusively for the PC on November 2nd in Europe.
"This
has been an amazing journey for us and we couldn't be more proud of
what we've accomplished," said Flagship Studios CEO, Bill Roper. "We're
anxious to get Hellgate: London into gamers' hands and we can't wait to
play right along with them."
And for gamers who can't wait until November 2nd to get their Demon-slaying on, Flagship Studios is releasing a single player demo tomorrow, Thursday October 18th on AOL’s Game Daily (www.gamedaily.com). The demo will be available everywhere else from Friday.
The
single player demo represents just a small taste of the Hellgate:
London experience. Gamers can choose from two of the game's six
character classes: the Blademaster, a master of swordplay and
action-packed melee combat, or the Marksman, a cool, calculating,
long-range specialist. In the demo, these heroes are able to battle
through a small handful of storyline and side quests as they adventure
through the streets and tunnels around London's Holborn Station.
Hellgate:
London combines the depth of role-playing games and the action of
first-person shooter titles, while offering infinite playability with
dynamically generated levels, items, enemies, and events. Whether
online or off, a player creates a heroic character, completes quests,
and battles through innumerable hordes of demons to advance through
experience levels and branching skill paths. A robust, flexible skill
and spell system, highly customizable appearances, and a massive
variety of randomly generated equipment allow players to create their
own unique hero.
The release of Hellgate: London is fast approaching! Stay tuned for more news at: www.hellgatelondon.com.
