Horror MMO, Secret World Legends, has launched and we have a new trailer to look at as we wait for Secret World Legends to download for free
The day is here and Secret World Legends has officially launched as a free to play MMO for everyone willing to take the dive back in. While this isn’t a completely new title, it is a rebranding and re-working of The Secret World from Funcom, a lot has changed since the first title launched and now it is back with even more for us. Also, best of all for a lot of gamers out there, Secret World Legends is here and free to play. You can go out and pick it up as you are reading this and give the whole game another play or just pick up where you left off…kind of. Either way you can go to the game’s website and give it all a download or wait until July 31st to add it into your Steam library. It’s up to you.
Before you hand wave off Secret World Legends due to the free to play model and more or less being a remaster of another title, it is completely worth noting that it is more than just that. So far we’ve see the combat get a bit of an overhaul and the character creation getting a few change-ups. The next big difference being that Secret World Legends also houses an addition 100 hours of story gameplay out there for those who want to go out and hunt for it all. Or experience it. All for free, or a small fee if you want to have a few of the extras like an addition character slot and such. They have to make some money on this at the end of the day you know.
No matter how you feel about Secret World Legends and it going free to play, at least give the launch trailer a look and see if you think it will be worth the time to pull you away from all of those other video games out there. I know I will be giving it another go here and hopefully it will be my go to MMO as I was hoping it would have been when it was still The Secret World. We’ll find out and I’ll see you in Secret World Legends hopefully.
