help The Secret World FAQ

Is The Secret World set only in Norway?

No. Funcom's MMO moves among locations such as New England, Egypt, Transylvania, and Tokyo, while its central hubs include London, New York, and Seoul. Norway is associated with Funcom, the developer, rather than serving as the game's sole setting.

What are the three factions in The Secret World?

Players join the Illuminati, Templars, or Dragon. The factions have different headquarters and philosophies, but they confront many of the same supernatural threats.

What happened to the original The Secret World?

Funcom relaunched it in 2017 as Secret World Legends with revised combat and a free-to-play structure. The original version and the relaunch are separate clients, and existing characters were not simply converted into identical Legends characters.

Are The Secret World's investigation missions different from normal quests?

Yes. Investigation missions use codes, historical clues, web research, music, and environmental details rather than relying only on combat markers. They are a defining part of the game, although consulting an online solution can bypass much of their intended puzzle solving.
