Bit slow on this, sorry. HanbitSoft - the South Korean company that now owns the rights to Hellgate: London - has confirmed that there's new content in the pipe for the troubled action-RPG-MMO.

"Since acquiring the intellectual property rights, HanbitSoft Inc., the publisher and distributor of Hellgate: London in Asia, has concentrated on the development of Hellgate: London, and has received many inquiries regarding new updates," the game's product manager wrote on his blog.

"Our US development studio is currently working on an update that is to surpass The Abyss Chronicles. This game will be available through our web site. We thank you once again for showing your interest and ask for your continuous support for Hellgate: London, as we hope to bring good news shortly. In the meantime, we will continue developing the world's best game!"
