No Western Hellgate Revival [Nov 04, 2008, 5:57 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
A post to the
Hellgate: London Forums by a NAMCO BANDAI's Diane "Tiggs" Migliaccio
indicates that despite recent indications that HanbitSoft is
continuing development of Hellgate: London, the action/RPG will be going
offline for the US and Europe at the end of January as previously
announced, saying: "People are speculating and I don't want anyone shocked on
January 31, 2009 when the server and forums shut down and there is nothing." She
goes on to explain Hanbit does not have the rights to publish the game in the
territories that NAMCO is going to stop supporting, saying: "Hanbit owns the IP
and rights to publish anywhere other then the US and EU and I think the other
territory is Japan. NAMCO owns the rights to publish in the US and EU." Thanks
Mike Martinez and
Gamasutra.
Subscribed for the lifetime of the game. Theoretically, they got exactly what they paid for.
