Deploying agents was the name of the game as you sought to make every corner, crevice, cranny and continent on the globe yours.
After just 14 days of playing, players recruited to The Secret War, and those looking forward to The Secret World, achieved some mindblowing statistics, which you can see listed below.

-The experience has had over 1.2 million visits in total
