Funcom has confirmed the official release date for its highly anticipated MMO, The Secret World.
TSW will be unleashed on the world on June 19, 2012, for those who may or may not have been
following; here is a retrospect of what we already know:
· Modern world setting where every conspiracy theory is true
· Three factions competing for world dominance: Templars, Illuminati and Dragons
· Character progression without class or level restrictions
· 500+ powers at launch, no ranks on skills
· Players can own all skills and choose different combinations depending on the desired outcome of
role assignment
· Combining different weapons and skills is similar to trading card games.
· Skills can be switched out at any time except in the middle of a battle
· Changing powers/skills can make a huge difference
· Social ranks within a player’s chosen faction will drive story quests
· Focus on gear, weapons, and chakras
· Mix of modern and magical weaponry: Voodoo dolls, Viking swords, AK47s, particle canons to name a few
· Monsters drawn from ancient history, movies, fairy tales, urban legends. They are ‘familiar with a twist’
· Player clothing has no stats and comes to players through rewards, achievements
· 150 hours of main storyline game play for each faction
· Every character is fully voiced and quest NPCs have fully voiced cinematics when assigning tasks
