The Secret World Spin-Off, The Park, Launching October 27th

The Secret World, The Park, would be launching on October 27th. Only two weeks away, the game will be released just in time for Halloween. It is currently available for pre-order on Steam, GamersGate, and Green Man Gaming. Pre-0rdering the game now will allow you to pick the game up for $9.99. It will be $12.99 after launch.

I've been openly critical of The Park in the past, given that it appears to be, for all intents and purposes, a budget title. The game's story "is told over one to two hours of gameplay" and I've been wondering if it wouldn't be better off as a series of quests in The Secret World. But Funcom seem to be aware of the nature of the title and have priced it accordingly. It will be interesting to see if it rises to the occasion and provides a horror experience to this Halloween.

For those that missed it, I've included the "What is The Park?" video below.
