Hellgate: London* , Namco Bandai's troubled MMO, will be closing its doors on January 31, 2009.

Until that time, the firm will offer "server support free of charge to all fans and players of the game."

This closure follows a string of setbacks for the MMO including a harsh reception from fans and critics alike, and the collapse of developer Flagship Studios earlier this year.

Since that time the MMO has been operated by publisher Namco Bandai, though apparently the firm sees no reason to continue their support.
