From now until the end of August, Funcom is offering The Secret World at half price. This is a great opportunity for new players to check out the game that attempts to break through the fantasy-themed MMO genre stereotype.

Unless you've been living under a fairly massive rock for the past year, chances are you've heard of The Secret World, so I won't bore you with a long-winded explanation of what the game is all about. What I will do, however, is encourage any of you who haven't played the game yet to consider doing so this month to take advantage of the current 50% discount pricing for the full TSW game.

Through the end of August, Funcom is offering TSW at the low, low price of $14.99, or basically the cost of a normal MMO monthly subscription. That's a pretty sweet deal for a full MMO, considering that the game is free-to-play once you've made the initial game purchase.

If you're looking to take advantage of the current discount price and dive into The Secret World, you can register and get set up over on the official website.
