Funcom has announced today that their action RPG The Secret World will relaunch this spring as the free-to-play game called Secret World Legends. The title will feature revamped combat, a new progression system, and updated visuals, and all the missions and mysteries from the game will be included.
"Over the course of five years, The Secret World has created a truly memorable RPG universe that stands out to this day for the uniqueness of its dark setting and tone, the depth of its quest design, and the high quality of its voice acting throughout," said Rui Casais, CEO of Funcom.
"One of our biggest goals in relaunching the game has been to reimagine the core gameplay experience in a way befitting a modern-day action RPG," said Scott Junior, Executive Producer. "Secret World Legends features combat that feels more natural, deep systems that are more intuitive, better structuring of the early game for new players, and improved mission flow to strengthen the pace of progression for players."
Players who are interested can already sign up for the Secret Worlds Legend's beta here, which is available today. Can this compete with the top free-to-play titles currently out?
