EA's just launched its
preorder campaign for The Secret World, Funcom's conspiracy-themed
action-MMO. Launching June, the game's leadup will be marked by a
series of Beta Weekends which'll tease the game's world and content
for players – and of course, there's a secret entrance to these
weekends, if you'll only hand over a token of your worldly esteem and
join the conspiracy. Or, in plain old English, preorder the game and
you can play it before it's released.
In addition to guaranteed full beta access,
preorder customers will get to play the finished game up to four days
before release and a headstart on choosing a character name. There'll
also be in-game perks for preordering, including an
experience-boosting item and faction-specific pet. Pre-order
customers will also get an exclusive in-game t-shirt, adorned with “a
unique monster design” so everyone can recognize the true
secret-society OGs. The game's set for launch on June 19; check our most recent The Secret World video preview now.
