The Lord of the Rings is a storied franchise not just across media, but specifically within video games. There’s a whole slew of titles based on the popular The Lord of the Rings films including Shadow of Mordor and Shadow of War, for instance. There’s even another The Lord of the Rings MMO, which is still in active development 12 years after it initially launched. The new The Lord of the Rings MMO will also be based on the books, rather than the movies, but is certain to be unique to its own.
The Lord of the Rings MMO has no announced release date or supported platforms.
