E3 2010 | The Agency trailer

The Agency has been in development for quite some time. S.O.E. originally announced the game in 2007 and it has since undergone a number of changes — the most obvious is the way the game looks. Despite the long development time, The Agency plays smoothly and features impressive, highly detailed environments.

While predominantly a shooter, The Agency blends a number of genres and gameplay types including RPG, MMO, stealth, and third-person action (when you take cover in the game the camera switches to third-person).

It has been a long time in the works for The Agency, an action espionage MMO from the group at Sony Online Entertainment. With E3 just days away, SOE have teamed with IGN to release a brand new E3 trailer for the game. Things have really come a long way since the game was first announced and things are looking very sharp in the world of spies.
