Soldiers of the Wasteland

At present, all signs are pointing towards the release of Hellgate: Resurrection (Hanbitsoft/T3 Entertainment’s re-release of Hellgate: London) in the US sometime in the near future.

But the name isn’t the only aspect of Hellgate that will be changed when Resurrection is released – we will see content from the unreleased Abyss chronicles and the new Tokyo update, as well as quest, game play, class and item changes.

So to keep everyone up to date with the changes associated with Hellgate: Resurrection, SotW member and Hellgate aficionado thegreatcthulhu has kindly posted a detailed FAQ on our forums listing answers to most of the questions you’re dying to ask.

It’s a good read and covers a lot of information about the game, but if there are more questions you want to know the answer to, simply register on the forums and ask!

HanbitSoft has announced that it has acquired the publishing rights for Hellgate: London in a number of countries including North America.

Hellgate: London will return to North America after it launches in a few other countries first. Hanbitsoft has said it plans to launch Hellgate in China, Taiwan, and South East Asia, Europe then North America, and finally Japan. The launch may entice old players back to the game with all of the additions made in the Korean version Hellgate: Resurrection.

No firm date has been put in place yet for when Hellgate: London will return to our shores (and PC’s).

To stay up to date with the latest news check out the thread on the forums. And if you plan on getting back into the game, why not register on our forums and get to know our community of largely ex-HGL vets- many of whom will also be getting back into the game as well.

Mad Moxxi’s Underdome Riot is the second DLC available for Borderlands and has just been released for the PC. Mad Moxxi introduces a new cooperative arena game mode as well as a stash to store your gear.

Instead of new areas to explore and quests to complete (which is what was offered The Zombie Island of Dr Ned), Mad Moxxi’s Underdome Riot includes Riot mode – a new gameplay mode that pits your character or team up against 5 waves of enemies in 3 different arena settings.

The new mode is a change of pace compared to the original game and first DLC, and hands on play testing has shown that you do not receive experience for killing enemies in the arena so this gameplay mode may be better suited for max level characters. There are however new weapons you can find in the arena, so if you feel like taking on the challenge there is a reward at the end of it.

Mad Moxxi’s Underdome Riot costs $9.99 to purchase and can be downloaded from the Gearbox store or from Steam.
