Get Shafted...
Folks have been wondering about the status of Flagship Studios, developers of Hellgate London and Mythos. We covered the story as it developed, and reported Flagship Studios' demise.
Today the following appeared on the Hellgate London forums, claiming that the rumors of Flagship Studios' demise were greatly exaggerated. Okay, a little exaggerated.
So, Flagship Studios still exists, and the "core management" team remains.
Alas, the press release doesn't really answer any questions about the status of Hellgate: London or Mythos.
