Mythos, the hack-and-slash MMO rescued from sunken Hellgate developer Flagship Studios, is ready for closed beta.

Names are being taken down now on the European Mythos website. Incidentally, the latter is brand new and stuffed with fresh information, pictures and video.

Mythos was taken over by HanbitSoft last year and improvements were apparently made across the board. The biggest alteration may be the ability to swap from the existing isometric viewpoint to a classic behind-the-character 3D view.

Frogster is publishing the game in English, German, French and Turkish. Mythos will launch in full next year.

Here's what Mythos looked like in 2007. I had less hair back then.
