The time has come – Tokyo is here!
 
The Secret World has just gotten its biggest update yet. The all new Issue #9 launches the massive Tokyo playfield and continues the game's main story quest.
 
Continue the story from Venice before you head out to Tokyo to take on the brand new challenges which await you there. Travel through the devastated subway, the place where it all began, and enter the besieged city itself.
 
Issue #9 offers hours of content, deep stories, new characters, fresh monsters, exciting locations and challenging quests. In addition you can enjoy the all new AEGIS system, which lets you equip a fresh set of equipment and weapon controllers.

Alright, Tokyo is HARD.

Seriously hard. Everything in Tokyo has a damage shield that you have to drop in addition to their regular health. And depending on the variety of damage shield, some regenerate, so if your damage output isn't fast enough pr attuned properly, you're toast.

On the plus side, there's some genuinely creepy sequences in the things you find here. Chills down your back creepy. Play it with your headphones on.

Yeah. I don't know how they managed it, but they topped Issue 7 for creepyness with Tokyo.

Still the best writing in any MMO ever, and ahead of almost all single player games as well.
