Win 4,000 keys for The Secret World beta weekend 2!

VG247′s teamed up with EA to bring you a shot at winning 4,000 keys to The Secret World’s second weekend beta, which starts Friday and runs through to Sunday. You can enter right now.

With Funcom conspiracy MMO The Secret World launching on June 19, beta activity is starting to hot up. The game’s second beta weekend begins tomorrow, and VG247 and EA have teamed up to give away 4,000 keys for the test.

First, some info.

The Secret World Beta Weekend #2

The Secret World Beta Weekend #2 begins on Friday May 18th at 9am PST and lasts until Sunday May 20th at 11.59pm PST.

In this Beta Weekend event, players must return to Kingsmouth as an initiate of the Templars and investigate the myths and mysteries of the town and its surrounding areas. In addition to all the content of the previous Beta Weekend, in this event you get to meet more of the brave and resourceful holdouts in Kingsmouth to learn their stories and pursue the many new missions they have for you.

Several characters, storylines and missions have been added since the previous Beta Weekend.

You can head over to the scrapyard and talk to Edgar. Apart from his two mean dogs, Tango and Cash, Edgar hasn’t seen many friendly faces lately. Not only has the scrap he has collected over the years come alive, and risen as powerful golems, but he is also neck deep in zombies. Edgar could really use your help to rid himself of some barrels of highly flammable gasoline – and some zombies.

Over at the airport the veteran mechanic Ellis Hill is holding out against an onslaught of Draug from the sea. These corrupted and ancient creatures are getting bolder and bolder, but seem to be weary of light. Though Ellis is handy with a gun, he could really use some assistance getting the generator going again.

The enigmatic and powerful Orochi Corporation is keeping a watchful eye on the dark happenings in Kingsmouth. Two of their representatives, Ann Radcliffe and Harrison Blake, are getting quite frustrated with their orders to just observe and not intervene.

They are in need of someone with special powers to investigate what lies behind the rising darkness, but perhaps it is smart to do a little investigation into Orochi itself as well?

The mysteries of Kingsmouth are yours to unravel.

To enter, follow the instructions in the box below. You have multiple chances to win, and should you do so you’ll receive the key by email along with some instructions about how to redeem the code.

…Hate Twitter, I understand its convenience, but just saying it makes my spine shiver. This whole @*Inset name* thing annoys me just as much. Fair enough when publicly replying, but elsewhere it looks tacky, like the nicknames.

I’ve entered, mostly because I like the name rafflecopter. I wish I’d thought of that.

Also, I’m a templar.

I’ve sent out the first lot now. Everyone who’s entered should have received a key. A few of the mails bounced back, so if you didn’t get one shout out in here and I’ll send one over.
