Funcom just revealed the Revenant, one of the many monsters you'll face in The Secret World. As one might expect from this mysterious modern day MMO, Funcom has sent players on an internet scavenger hunt to pick up all the clues about the enemy.

For your first stop, The Secret World Facebook page contains two screenshots of the Revenant, as well as some concept art. You can view them all after the jump.

Then you can head over to MMORPG.com for some more screenshots and a look at the lore behind the creature. Here's a taste:

"Amongst the ranks of the living dead, the Revenant holds a special place. No mere reanimated corpse, the Revenant has formed from the restless fragments of those who, in life, did great evil. Devious and clever, the Revenants serve no master, no greater plan or intelligent design. All they crave is misery, pestilence, agony and death. They feed on terror and pain, and their presence is always an omen of impending doom."

To wrap things up, visit Game Trailers to watch a video of two characters battling the monster.
