‘The Secret World’ Is Out Today, Which Side Will You Fight For?
Fucking Cthulhu is in this game? Why didn’t anyone tell me this? Look, if you weren’t interested in this game already, Cthulhu should immediately make this worth your time. I mean, come on, it’s Cthulhu. So The Secret World is out today and it looks pretty great. I spent about an hour with it last night and it’s unlike any other game I’ve ever played, and I mean that in a very good way. The unique blend of sci-fi, fantasy and horror helps it stand out from the myriad other MMOs out there. Head past the break for the launch trailer!
This game is brimming with conspiracies, urban myths and mythological creatures (like Cthulhu) and covers much of the world. You can choose between the Illuminati, Templars and Dragon, which are located in New York City, London and Seoul, respectively. Look our for our co-op review of the game that should go live pretty soon.
The Secret World is available now for $49.99 on the PC. The game does require a monthly subscription of $14.99 but the first 30 days are free for those who purchase the game.

We have the Jason Universe to thank for the recent return of Jason Voorhees, with the short film Sweet Revenge and Jason’s arrival in Dead by Daylight helping to bring the hockey mask-wearing horror icon back into our lives. What else is planned, you ask?
In a chat with Variety this week, Jason Universe’s Robbie Barsamian teases that everything we’ve seen up to this point is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Jason’s return.
“We’ve been busy behind the scenes laying the foundation that everyone is finally starting to see come to life, but this is just the tip of the iceberg,” Barsamian teases.
“We have a thrilling lineup of new projects that we can’t wait to share more details on soon.”
Barsamian also notes during the chat with Variety, “We want to give fans fresh takes on what they love most about Jason and continue to expand his world in authentic ways that resonate with horror fans today.” One of those expansions will take the form of the upcoming Peacock and A24 series “Crystal Lake,” which stars Linda Cardellini as Pamela Voorhees.
“The Crystal Lake TV series will take fans back in time to tell the story of how Pamela Voorhees came to be the mother of all slashers,” Barsamian tells Variety this week.
“Crystal Lake” premieres October 15 on Peacock.
Callum Vinson (“Chucky”) is playing young Jason in “Crystal Lake,” which will tell the origin story of the masked slasher who has stalked the grounds of Crystal Lake for decades.
Last year, the Jason Universe team had teased that a new movie and a new video game are top priorities for the near future. But at this time we have no updates on either front.
Stay tuned for more from the Jason Universe.
