Star Wars: The Old Republic has showed that new MMORPGs can certainly still make a splash in the market and investors seem to like the chances of Funcoms The Secret World scheduled to release later this year. According to Views and News from Norway, Funcom topped the Oslo Stock Exchange last year with a 227% increase in share prices.
The increase is due in no small part to the upcoming launch of The Secret World, which Funcom boss Trond Arne Aas has cited as part of the companies third quarter logged loss explaining, Were investing heavily in The Secret World now, therefore the loss, Aas told Aftenposten.
