Ever since finding out in late February that Funcom has plans to relaunch The Secret World with a new business model and redesigned combat, players have been desperate for more information on how this all will shake out. Fortunately, we’re about to end a month of speculation, as the studio will reportedly be opening up on the subject soon.
According to a player post on the forums, Funcom said on a livestream that it will be talking about the “big update” by the end of March — so sometime in the next week — but is keeping silent until then. That might prove welcome news for fans that have started to feel stressed out about the lack of communication on this relaunch so far.
In the meantime, The Secret World welcomed on board new community manager Nicole “Spynosaur” Vayo last week. “I was a GM for customer support for the last two-and-a-half years up until yesterday,” she said, “I’m extremely excited and happy to be here and being involved more with you guys through the forums, social media, and the like. Especially with upcoming changes and updates for The Secret World. It’s a new adventure for me and I look forward to getting to know you all through it! ”
