Flagship Studios are pleased to announce the pricing structure for its upcoming highly-anticipated action role-playing game HELLGATE: LONDON in Europe. For expectant players HELLGATE: LONDON will offer players two ways to play through Standard and Subscription accounts.

For all players, HELLGATE: LONDON comes completely free-to-play out of the box and will offer a secure online experience with features including the ability to play cooperatively with thousands of other players, trade items, join guilds and enjoy a host of gameplay and community features including voice chat and buddy lists.

For players with Subscription* accounts ( € 9.99 / £6.99 per month) , Flagship Studios will deliver exciting new ongoing content including new character classes, areas, monsters, items and raid content, new game modes (including Hardcore, Role-Play and PvP mode), and additional character and stash slots. Subscribers can found guilds, select to nominate an officer and will have access to guild and player housing. Other features include in-game email for items, web access to characters and a place in future beta lotteries.

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. The 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.

HELLGATE: LONDON will be released in Europe on November 2nd.

its currently in alpha testing ( a couple of friends are involved ) but i doubt they'll have an open beta of this. It will be an awesome game though, gonna be fun.
 
What kind of game will this be. I thought it was a FPS crossed with an RPG, but I can't understand why they would be charging for a monthly subscription.

Is the game open-ended, or does it have a finite story?
 
The game mechanics seems to lie somewhere inbetween Diablo 2 and WoW.

"The online multiplayer will be primarily instanced for each group. Towns and meeting places will allow for a higher number of groups and people. Only members of your group will be able to enter your instance outside of towns."
 
I thought the gameplay looked extremely uninvolving - the video's I saw put me off the game in a big way, and I was really looking forward to it.

That, plus the pricing for what is effectively half an MMORPG, means this game has dissapeared off my radar.
