The Secret World Legends, the remake of the horror MMO The Secret World, is still in closed beta. However, the game is set to be re-released as a “Shared World RPG” in a few weeks.
The Secret World is an unusual online role-playing game that, unlike many other games in the genre, does not focus on raids and fantasy, but has a story-based horror setting in the modern world as its theme. Unfortunately, the game was not very accessible and was cumbersome. However, the developers at Funcom have not given up yet and are bringing The Secret World back under the name The Secret World Legends as a kind of action MMO.
The remake has been announced for a while now and has a concrete release date.
The Secret World Legends – Release in June
The Secret World Legends is set to be released on June 26, 2017, according to Funcom. Unlike the old TSW, the game will not be an MMORPG, but a “Shared World RPG.” This means that the developers at Funcom intend for players to primarily roam around the central quest hub and mostly remain in the adventure zones. Additionally, you will finally be able to explore the regular areas solo if you don’t bring friends.
In addition to these features, the developers at Funcom want to overhaul the cumbersome combat system, improve player progression, and enhance the graphics. The game is also set to become more accessible overall. Many of the new features of The Secret World Legends can be seen in the new trailer created by the developers at Funcom for the game’s relaunch. Have fun!
