The Secret World, an upcoming MMO from the creator of the Dreamfall series, will include large-scale PvP battles according to the game’s creative director Ragnar Tornquist.
The warzones will be persistent, not instanced, Tornquist told TenTonHammer:
“On each server, that warzone is persistent and possibly filled up. As for how many we have, we’ve announced the one we have here – it’s a city in China. We don’t have a name for it just yet, and we’re not ready to reveal how many there are in the final product just yet.
“You’ll also be gaining ranks within your secret society via missions in PvE and PvP. Your relationship to your faction and your war against the other factions’ secret societies will be the focal point of the game to some players. Each society will have its own story. You will go to some of the same locations, and see what even seems like the exact same story – but different results and things will happen.
“You’ll have to see it to believe it. The full story can only be gleaned from talking to those of other factions who have seen the events unfold from another angle.”
The Secret World is a horror-oriented MMO which takes place in various cities around the world. Players will join up with secret societies, including the Templars, and the Illuminati.
Beta sign-ups for the MMO begin August 26. The game is slated for release in April 2012.
