Never heard of this game? Neither had I until a few minutes ago. Here's the description off IGN's website:

IGN.com wrote:A massively multiplayer online role–playing game, The Secret World takes place on our earth, in our times, and yet is a tale of mythology and ancient mysteries. For there really is a world within ours, a secret world, where magic exists, monsters roam and ancient forces are fighting for the dominance of earth. It is a world of legendary stories, ageless conflicts and powerful cabals. In this world, even modern cities hide secrets. In this world, players can take part in the greatest conspiracies of our age, and battle the forces of darkness across the world and throughout time.

Even more interesting is that the developer is Funcom and lead developer is Ragnar Tørnquist, best known for The Longest Journey and Dreamfall.

Here's a preview (also from IGN) on the game itself. There's also a Wikipedia article about it, in addition to the game's own website.

I didn't check everything yet (at work and customers demanding my attention - imagine, the nerve of some people!) - but I looked at the screen shots and my first thought was, "This is what it would look like if they did a Left 4 Dead MMO."

I wonder if it will be free to play?

I wonder when the damn game will be out so that Mr. Tørnquist can start working on those Dreamfall: Chapters he promised years and years ago. That will teach him to end his games with abnormally huge cliffhangers!

No kidding! That's more my interest as well.
