Hellgate's open beta kicks off today at 7:30 p.m. EDT in North America and Europe! Get ready to fight the demons of hell now that T3 Entertainment has brought this game back to life as a free-to-play action MMO.

The open beta will feature two new game modes. The Duel Area is comprised of four PvP battlegrounds in which players can participate in team deathmatches to earn points for accessories, pets and other items. The Cow Room will be crawling with zombies that players must defeat while dealing with a vision-reducing sandstorm. In order to enter the Cow Room, players will first need to craft a key.

T3 Entertainment will also be hosting four events to mark the launch of the open beta:

• The Guild Reservoir event will encourage teamwork and collaboration as guilds with 30 or more members join together to earn rewards including nano shards or Palladiums on a per member basis.
• The Daily Supplies event will run for one month and will scatter daily supplies ranging from Resurrection scrolls to Power message abilities around the Greenwich headquarters. Once a day players will have a chance to acquire up to four awesome items.
• To Level in Hell will challenge players to level up as fast as they can until level 20. The Game Masters will pick 10 lucky entries to win 3,000 TCoins each.
• Level and Be Rewarded, the final event, will bestow special prizes on all players who reach level 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, and 50.
