[[Flagship Studios]]' first title was formally released October 31, 2007 as an action role-playing game [[ARPG]] in the same vein as the Diablo games, but with the twist of being played in 3D, primarily from a first-person perspective.
The game takes place in a post-apocalyptic demon-infested London, following a great battle between demons and humans. The developer was careful to point out that the game experience would be nothing like that of regular first-person shooters, but with . The game featured much deeper RPG content in the form of e.g. such as, random quests, and where a character's combat efficiency is more was determined by statistics rather than player reflexes. In addition, the game featured random levels, uncommon in games of similar perspective and scale.

However it received mixed reviews, and complaints by many gamers that the game was released in an unfinished state, which was later admitted by CEO [[Bill Roper]]. The company no longer owns the intellectual property rights to Hellgate: London.
