Hellgate Global CBT Sign-up Starts



T3Fun and HanbitSoft have officially announced North American closed beta dates for Hellgate, with the kickoff scheduled for June 3rd to June 5th. The game will launch later this year according to a press release.


HanbitSoft and T3Fun are reanimating the corpse of the post-apocalyptic horror RPG/MMO hybrid for a global release in the near future. The title is being developed in Korea, and T3Fun has recently updated its website and Facebook page with a lengthy story video and a few gameplay screens.

The trailer showcases over 12 minutes of CG footage designed to familiarize would-be crusaders with Hellgate's world and their place in it. The short version is that the forces of hell have ransacked the earth. The longer version involves copious amounts of swords, machine guns, curvaceous templars and slavering demons bent on subjugating the local populace.

If you know your gaming history, you'll also know that Hellgate was originally developed by ex-Blizzard staffers before collapsing under the weight of unmet expectations and financial pressures.

Players will need to create an account at T3Fun, the English MMO portal for Hanbitsoft. Following that, there are 2 methods to obtain a Closed Beta key - Either join the small contest on the official website (50-50 chance to get in) or simply obtain keys from the partner websites. More details can be found here.

  1. I was able to play Hellgate Global for a few minutes before the game server went down for maintenance yesterday.
