A brand new trailer has been revealed for Funcom's interestingly contemporary MMO, The Secret World. This new video uses the in-game engine for the first time and tells the story of Kingsmouth, a quiet little town that has been overrun by zombies. How rude!
Zombies are just one part of this interesting MMO. Global conspiracies, bizarre monsters, and all manner of shady goings-on are what will hopefully set this game apart from all the other would-be massive multiplayers out there. We'll have to wait and see what the final product is like, but I have high hopes for TSW from a conceptual standpoint.
Funcom needs to hurry up and get a beta going because I really want to see how this turns out.

But it's probably the coolest concept for an MMO that I've ever seen, so I'll give it a shot anyway.
I think if APB and this come to consoles for a reasonable price, I would definitly be interested.
BUT the supernatural powers kinda turned me off, i was hoping kinda like a REAL ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE kinda thing, like there would be this massive world and you get to travel and find a desserted city and maybe find surviors ther (real players) so its up to them to take you in or not, you know like a REAL psychological dark atmosphere, where we only have guns and not magic
i would buy that kinda game in a heartbeat!!
no the dead guy put his....
Looking forward to it, but yeah, they should hurry up with a beta or something.
I still won't forgive myself for the travesty of purchasing Conan MMO, another MMO that Funcom was involved with.
