At the end of The Secret World‘s first episode of DevStream, the team teased that mounts will be coming the game.

So there you go, yes, we’re gonna add mounts to the game. So motorbike is going to be our first one – it’s going to be coming up soon. […] The idea is this is going to be a way for you guys to sort of customize your sprints, so you have your normal sprint right now, which is running extremely fast, and you’re going to be able to use mounts instead of that sprint – and other things. We’re going to give you like new variations as well, of runs, and all these kinds of things. It’s a big feature and a lot of new things are coming up and a lot of things that we’re going to explain in the future.

Given that these will be implemented as simply aesthetic additions to the existing sprint system (with no gameplay impact), it seems likely that we’re going to see these introduced as a welcome addition to the buy-to-play title’s cash shop.
