T3 to Resume Hellgate, Mythos Development in New SF Studio?
While we still don’t have the definitive word on where Flagship Studios’ intellectual property has actually gone, a pair of job postings have surfaced that point to a HanbitSoft victory. T3 Entertainment, the majority stakeholder in publisher HanbitSoft, is “searching for creative minds to passionately continue development of Hellgate: London and Mythos,” and is going to great lengths to attract them. T3 has reportedly started a new development studio in San Francisco, their first U.S. foothold, for that express purpose.
Gamasutra first discovered the job postings conveniently nestled into their own website, the pair similar in every way except for their date (the first appears to be over a week old) and a newly added requirement for 2+ years of experience. On the off-chance it might be pulled, we’ve reproduced the most recent posting in its entirety below:
Both the wording of the job description, and the location of the new facility (zip code 94102, as close as seven blocks to Flagship) imply that the company may seek to entice former Flagship Studios employees back to work on the properties. But, last we heard, Flagship still owns those properties… and we’re still waiting for Namco Bandai’s other giant orange shoe to drop.
