According to Game Espresso, HanbitSoft global PR manager Janelle Ha implied that there will be slim hope of free-to-play republishing of Hellgate: London in the United States even Hellgate: London is continuing to receive updates created by a US developer.
That sounds like he is flaunting to the fans who are non Korean. Because HanbitSoft has just announced that Hellgate: London is currently under preparation for the next update for the 1.5 version, which will be open to public in Korea very soon.
The publishing rights for US and Europe area remain with Namco Bandai, who decided to shut down Hellgate: London for good on February 1st. If you want to play the game quickly and for free, "You guys should contact the person in charge at Namco directly, you should be able to get the answers from them." said Ha.
