A
computer game from game company
Flagship Studios, employees who broke off from Blizzard's Diablo division.
The game is set in the near future, after Hell literally invades London. I know, you didn't expect that from the name at all. There are underground stations that hold refugees and those that fight back.
There are 3 groups of rebels, the
Templars (holy avengers),
Cabalists (using the demon's powers against them), and
Hunters (ex-military ops). Each has two classes, the Templars with
Guardians and
Blademasters, the Cabalists with
Evokers and
Summoners, and lastly the Hunters with
Engineers and
Marksman.
The game plays as a mixture of
FPS style gameplay, mixed with gaming style of
Diablo 2 in the sense of acts, inventory and levels of difficulty. It borrows it's quest ideals from every MMO out there (WoW, CoH/CoV, FFXI, EQ etc).
Game Informer, a generally impartial reviewer, gave Hellgate London an 8.5/10.
