The developers of The Secret World revealed during an official live stream yesterday that The Secret World will be open for anyone to play next weekend. From 3rd August at 4pm GMT until 6th August at 7am GMT. This is to celebrate the games one month anniversary (seriously?), Funcom will be doing events, giving players fireworks and other rewards for completing a series of missions.
