Hellgate: London Preview

GameSpot has whipped up another short preview of Hellgate: London, after checking out the latest build of Flagship’s demon-infested action RPG at a recent press event.

The game itself looks much more complete than it has on previous occasions. It takes place in a postapocalyptic version of London, England in the wake of a demonic invasion, and the environments look more complete and more lived-in. The game’s character and weapon models have also benefited from several layers of polish and additional detail added to them, as has the game’s interface, which looks much more streamlined and perhaps less overwhelming. A full tutorial has now been added to the content-complete game that will walk beginners through the basics, but make no mistake: Hellgate: London will have a lot of stuff to play with. For starters, the game will have lots of different, customizeable weapons with modular components that you can swap in and out to power them up, as well as one-handed and two-handed weapons your character can dual-wield. You’ll also pick up several different types of armor your character can wear, and in order to avoid making your character look like a multicolored clown who wears an orange helmet, a brown chestpiece, and purple boots, the game will have an “eyedropper” tool you can use to make every piece of your character’s attire have the same color scheme.
