Gamers in North American who pre-order either the regular or collectors edition of Hellgate: London will receive three special treats just in time for Halloween! First off, buyers will receive a key to an exclusive Beta starting next week and ending October 07, 2007. Secondly s one of four exclusive dye-kits that will give your hero's gear a cool color theme right off the bat when Hellgate: London officially opens on Halloween.

Hellgate: London comes from some of the core developers of the Diablo team from Blizzard. It promises a deep, story-driven campaign with over 40 hours of gameplay and both online and offline capabilities. It combines RPG depth with the fast action of a shooter and may very well represent the evolution of the action RPG genre!

I've had a bit of gameplay time with Hellgate: London and have to admit I was very impressed. I'm definately looking forward to this one, so stay tuned to Just-RPG and The RPG-Geek for more info!
