Hellgate: London is days away from official launch

An official statement on the game's website states that all beta accounts and login servers have been taken down for preparation and maintainance in order to be ready and fully functional for the day of the release of the game, along Haloween, on October 31st in USA and on the 2nd of November in Europe.

The downtime is necessary to ensure a smooth ride for the customers from the very first day of online play. In the meantime I am getting myself ready for the one of the biggest and most comprehensive review I ever wrote for a videogame, as this one will change concepts and will revolutionize the gaming industry. There are loads of new elements and key concepts like shooter action is combined with 3rd person hack-and-slash in order to bring a full gaming experinece to the table.

As soon as the required maintenance is performed, the website and forums will once again be operable, and the ones who were beta players, such as myself, will be able to keep their characters and to choose their favourite names for their characters. I've got a BladeMaster and a Lady Summoner wating for me, lots of monsters and demons to slay... More details will be added soon.
