The first update will be released July 31st and details on what is included in the update will be made available later this week. In his first State Mr. Tørnquist has revealed a high-level overview of what players can expect further down the line, including:

- Monthly mission packs, including a slew of new investigation missions
- A player vs. player dungeon set in an entirely new geographical area
- New weapons (including a big one that will cause even bigger explosions!)
- Raids (clue for the first one: The Big Apple will never be the same)
- Expanded character customization, including plastic surgery

- Seasonal events such as Halloween and Winter Solstice

- And much, much more!

"The team is excited to be working on expanding The Secret World," says Senior Producer and Creative Director Ragnar Tørnquist. "We are committing to a very ambitious update schedule, but our goal is, and has always been, to provide our subscribers with new, high-quality content every month."
