The Korean Hellgate site HG.Gamemeca.com has posted what appears to be two new concept artworks for Hellgate: London. As far as anyone knows, it could just be two pieces of art with the Hellgate Logo on it, so officially these shots should be considered a rumour still (even the poster at Gamemeca speculates so). Still, the past experience concerning Gamemeca, would imply that it is likely new concept art for Patch 1.3. The art style is also very similar to previous concept art.
Before Flagship Studios, there was Blizzard North. Originally known as Condor, the Redwood-based studio was acquired in 1997 by Blizzard Entertainment. At the time, Blizzard North was hard at work on the development of the game that would be the cornerstone of everything that came after: Diablo.
IGN : Remember Hellgate: London? The dark fantasy action role-playing game came out in 2007 for PC, a year before developer Flagship Studios went bankrupt. Since then, various free-to-play and online revivals have come and gone. Now, 17 years after the release of Hellgate: London, it’s back.
I remember some friends and I all bought Hellgate: London day one because it was made by some original Diablo devs. We had fun playing it, good memories.
PC Invasion: Hellgate: London is back on Steam, but it's not what you expect it to be. It's a single-player game in the vein of Asian MMOs.
