Pre-Orders begin for The Secret World, include beta access

Posted by SpectralShock on

Independent developer and publisher of online games Funcom, and EA Partners, have announced that the pre-order campaign for the upcoming MMO The Secret World is now live.

Everyone who pre-orders will be guaranteed access to all Beta Weekends beginning May 11, 2012 running most weekends up until the game’s launch on June 19, 2012 on PC.

Gamers who pre-order The Secret World will receive beta access, early access to the game up to four days prior to the game’s official launch, an exclusive in-game item providing an experience boost to progression, an exclusive in-game t-shirt featuring a unique monster design, a powerful pet, and a head start on character naming before the game launches.

The Beta Weekends are a fantastic opportunity for players to familiarize themselves with the game,” says Funcom SVP of Sales & Marketing Morten Larssen. “With guaranteed access to every single one of these weekends, our pre-order players will have the unique opportunity to truly immerse themselves in the universe that surrounds The Secret World – starting six weeks before launch!”

The Secret World puts players into a modern-day MMO world where secret societies pull the strings of entire governments from the shadows. Players get to travel the world – from New York to London and from Egypt to Transylvania – as they fight the evil that has infiltrated myths and folklore for centuries.
