Hunter’s Arena: Legends Closed Beta Test Begins
Video: Hunter’s Arena: Legend Drops New Trailer
Hunter’s Arena promises all the content of an MMORPG in the span of a 30 minute match. From studio Mantisco, Hunter’s Arena might be the most confusing game pitch that I have seen in the past few years. It combines battle royale, MOBA, and action RPG in a game that sees 60 players and ten thousand monsters thrown into a battlefield and fighting for survival.
“Survive among 60 players and 10,000 monsters! Farming, Upgrading, Raiding, Dungeons and PvP action – try this MMORPG-like experience within just a 30 minutes game session! It’s not just a Battle Royale with an RPG combat system, it’s a full-scale RPG available in a Battle Royale mode. Utilize teamwork in party play and backstab your enemies!”
You can check out the trailer above and read up on Hunter’s Arena at the Steam link below.

The Story Continues: Funcom Announces Secret World Legends Expansion
The secret world of The Secret World just got bigger as Funcom today announced the first story expansion since the game went free to play last year. Continuing the main story, Dawn of the Morninglight leads players to investigate the faction of the same name.
The Morninglight began in The Secret World’s story as seemingly insignificant threats with the player finding bodies of their agents present seemingly wherever a disaster occurred. As the story went on, the Morninglight’s insidious nature began to show itself, and in Dawn of the Morninglight players will finally get the opportunity to infiltrate the secretive organization and see how it ticks.
“This is it, this is the next chapter every Secret World player have been waiting for,” says Josh Mills, Producer for Secret World Legends. “Ever since we left off in Tokyo before going free-to-play, players have been wanting to know what happens next. The whole team is really excited to finally be able to provide some answers to that and taking the story into a location such as South Africa has been an absolute blast. This is Secret World Legends unlike you’ve ever seen it before.”

Secret World Legends Returns to Tokyo
Secret World Legends is going to Tokyo, again! Players familiar with the original The Secret World storyline will be well acquainted with Tokyo and its quirks, but the zone has just become available on reboot title Secret World Legends.
Tokyo marks the first of three major content additions that will add new areas, content, and story. True to its name, the Tokyo update brings players to (you guessed it) Tokyo to continue the fight against the filth and the evil that it brings.
“The Tokyo updates represent the final part of the storyline that was The Secret World,” says Executive Producer Scott Junior. “Secret World Legends has opened up the game to an entirely new audience who will experience the Tokyo storyline for the very first time. But there is much more to come, and we especially want our veteran players to know that as the storyline of The Secret World ends, the storyline of Secret World Legends is about to start. This winter, a brand new story will be revealed. Players will get to go to new locations, meet new characters, and experience adventures they never have before.”
Secret World Legends is free to play on Steam.
Funcom Unveils Information Regarding The Secret World Transfers
Funcom is finally ready to hand over the details on Secret World Legends, namely the process by which you will transfer your character over. Starting Friday, June 23, you’ll be able to log into your account on the Secret World Legends website and transfer your account over. The transfer will only be available until an undetermined time in August and can only be performed once, so make it count!
For a limited time (until some time in August 2017), you can initiate a ONE-TIME copy of your current TSW clothing items and membership over to your Secret World Legends account. Activating this also unlocks all of your weapon pages in Secret World Legends! Once you log into your Secret World Legends account page, click the TSW Legacy Transfer button to begin the process. That’s it! You get to choose exactly when your items and membership gets copied, but again, this is only available until some time in August.
Most clothing items barring faction rank gear will transfer over, as will pets. Achievement rewards will cross over but the achievements will not.

[VIDEO] Secret World Legends’ New Combat System
The latest video from Secret World Legends is out, showcasing how the reticle-based combat will function and giving a sneak peek into new weapon mechanics. Secret World Legends opens to the public on June 26. As far as changes go, combat is shaping up to be the most dramatic shift from the current Secret World system.
Funcom Announces The Secret World Legends
Last month during an investor call, Funcom announced a relaunch of The Secret World, to take place in the first half of the year, with the goal of revamping combat, enhancing the new user experience, and overall making the game more appealing to a wider audience. While The Secret World is fortunate enough to carry a very loyal fanbase, the game never exactly performed to Funcom’s standards and has been criticized for floaty combat, among other issues.
Secret World Legends appears to have dropped the “MMO” part of the equation and is instead billing itself as a shared world RPG. What this means for players and how they interact in the world is yet to be seen, however The Secret World as an MMO has always been on the smaller side. You generally don’t see more than a few people walking around at any given time and perhaps a dozen or so at most in hub areas, so we’ll have to see exactly how this change in branding affects the gameplay.
Funcom is excited to announce that their acclaimed story-driven game The Secret World will be relaunched this spring as Secret World Legends, a shared-world action RPG with completely revamped combat, a newly designed progression system, and updated visuals. The game’s full collection of missions and mysteries will be free to play, with over 100 hours of mature storytelling and surprises.
To the dismay of veteran players who have put hundreds, if not thousands of hours into their characters, this is what we know: This is not an update of The Secret World with a new name and brand, but a completely new spinoff (a relaunch of the content with new mechanics, if you will). While the old version of The Secret World will still be available to play and you can link your account to gain benefits in Legends, your characters will not transfer over.
They’ll continue to live on the old TSW servers, so you’ll still be able to log in and play them. You will not be able to play them on the new Secret World Legends server though. It’s a new experience and fresh start for everyone.
At launch, Secret World Legends will contain the original eight zones, with expansions from Tokyo, Nightmare Dungeons, Raids, etc coming at a later date. While all content will be available for free, you’ll be able to buy Aurum as a premium currency to give yourself extra bonuses:
Aurum is used to purchase a variety of in-game items and services in Secret World Legends. This includes but is not limited to: additional weapon pages, extra inventory space, additional characters, exclusive vanity items, and much more!
While Funcom has promised that your characters on The Secret World are safe, early concerns about plans to quietly sunset the title are quickly popping up. The Secret World is no longer available for purchase on Steam, coinciding with the Steam forums being completely wiped.

Chronicle: RuneScape Legends Launches Single Player Campaign
Jagex has unveiled the latest major update to Chronicle: RuneScape Legends, a single player campaign that tasks players with overcoming the Trials of Radimus. The update comes alongside the addition of new dynamic chapter environments as well as global/friend chat systems.
“We’ve been planning on giving players a solo campaign mode for quite some time, so we’re really excited to see how they perform in the Trials,” said James Sweatman, lead designer, Chronicle: RuneScape Legends. “The addition of Mac support is something we’ve been asked for since our summer launch, so it’s great to be able to open the Chronicle to more players. We’ve worked hard to ensure that Chronicle: RuneScape Legends is the complete CCG package.”
Chronicle: RuneScape Legends is a card game based in the same world as RuneScape, where players build decks of powerful monsters and equipment and set their adventurers loose to tell their own stories. The game is free to play, however those of you looking to get a bit of a start can grab a free foundation pack below courtesy of Jagex. The Foundation Pack normally costs $10 and includes 10 booster packs (50 cards total), 500 platinum ingots (premium currency), 1 exclusive card back, and 500 gem shards.
The Foundation Pack can only be applied once and our keys are limited, so we politely ask that our readers do not try to trick the system to take multiple packs.
