“The initial reception of the relaunch has been very positive and the early launch has exceeded our expectations,” says Funcom CEO Rui Casais. “It has been years since we last saw a surge in player activity like this in the Secret World universe, and we are very encouraged by the positive feedback we have received from players both old and new. Launching early in our own channels has created a solid foundation for us to build upon as we now launch on Steam and prepare to roll out a series of updates and content to the game in the months to come. Relaunching Secret World Legends was all about giving the game a new lease on life, and we are thrilled to be able to say that we have succeeded in that goal. The future looks very promising for Secret World Legends.”
