“The Secret World is an amazing game for us to get on the
platform,” said Kay Gruenwoldt, CEO of PointMMO. “As
Funcom adds a new trial program to the game, we’re able to
offer the fastest time from click to play, meaning more people will
likely try the game via PointMMO than through traditional
download.”

unique modern-day setting and unparalleled freedom of character
progression.
Imagine if every myth, conspiracy theory and urban legend was
true. Imagine a world where you can become anything you want to be,
without restrictions such as classes or levels. This is the premise
for The Secret World, Funcom’s upcoming massively multiplayer
online game set in the modern-day real world.
