Back in March, developer Funcom announced that it was taking its story-driven online game The Secret World and relaunching it as Secret World Legends, a conspiracy-themed shared-world action RPG .

In this transition, the game is also ditching its previous payment model and going the free-to-play route. According to Funcom the reason for the transition to free-to-play is that it wanted more players to be experience the game, and thus it was removing the hurdles of a pay-upfront structure.

Fast-forward to today, and Funcom announced that Secret World Legends will launch on PC via Steam on June 26, 2017. Additionally, the developer also released a new overview trailer, providing details on what the game is all about.

In case you prefer to read than visually learn: here’s an overview of Secret World Legends via Funcom:
