The Secret World’s “Big Trouble in the Big Apple” Issue Offers Biggest Update Yet

Raids, plays and chainsaws await erstwhile players.


Funcom’s The Secret World is still going with the fourth and biggest issue “Big Trouble in the Big Apple” ready to hit soon.

There’s certainly a massive helping of content and Funcom has provided a helpful preview featuring Game Director Joel Bylos, who details what we can expect in the newest Issue.


Some of the new features include the Manhattan Exclusion Zone, a raid area raid in the middle of a destroyed Times Square for groups of 10 players and the Albion Theater, a London theater venue where players can set up their own stage plays. You’ll be able to plan everything out from props to lighting and other players can be invited to watch in the audience.

Additions have been made to the combat as well, including PvP enhancements and new weapons like the Chainsaw, which opens new abilities for players to procure. There’s also a new, optional Reticule combat mode that lets you target enemies using the mouse.
