Funcom have announced that upcoming MMORPG The Secret World has seen over 500,000 people sign up for the beta at this point. The game is set to launch in April, and no date is currently available for the beta.
"We are thrilled to see the amount of interest ‘The Secret World' is generating among gamers and the press, and exceeding half a million beta registrations six months before release is definitely something we are proud of," says Funcom CEO Trond Arne Aas. "The gamer interest in ‘The Secret World' and the community size for the game is even greater than we experienced with ‘Age of Conan' at the same stage of development. We expect the community size to keep on expanding at an ever faster pace in the coming months as we approach Open Beta and launch."
