Hellgate: London - Image 1Both Hellgate: London and Mythos have already amassed a certain amount of popularity among the MMORPG community. With the recent problems Flagship Studios has been encountering, it's understandable that the fans of both games may be rather worried at what will happen to both games.

Well, don't worry because it looks like T3 Entertainment, the Korean developers who created Audition Online, will be taking up the responsibility of developing both Hellgate: London and Mythos.

The company has already been putting out advertisements for programmers to help continue the development of both games:

T3 Entertainment is searching for creative minds to passionately continue development of Hellgate: London and Mythos, along with other new games, which are being published by HanbitSoft Inc.


Interestingly enough, the development of both games will not be done in Korea as some would expect but in San Francisco. It seems that a new studio will be put up there:

A development studio has been established in San Francisco, CA, with hopes of gathering those who wish to join us in starting a new chapter of history in the game industry.


At this point, we are unsure whether or not the development team will contain members of the former development teams who worked on these MMORPGs or will be composed of entirely new members. Another question posed is the role of Namco Bandai in this entire situation. Are they simply gong to be the publisher of the game in the U.S.? More updates on this as we get them.
