Remember that new F2P LOTR MMO that was being made we told you about??
Turns out there is a big name behind it as well as Leyou Technologies. Amazon Game Studios is also behind the game.
There’s no word yet on a story or setting. Amazon Game Studios VP Christoph Hartmann said in a statement,
“Tolkien’s Middle-earth is one of the richest fictional worlds in history, and it gives our team of experienced MMO developers — from the same studio developing New World — tremendous opportunity to play and create.”
Amazon Game Studios and Leyou will jointly develop the game for PC and consoles, and Amazon Game Studios will market and publish the title globally with the exception of China, which will be managed by Leyou. The collaboration brings together Amazon’s game technology and talented MMO developers, and Leyou’s expertise in designing free-to-play games and operating live-service games.
I reached out to Amazon PR to ask if there will be a connection to the game and TV show that Amazon is also working on, There will NO connections to game and the Lord of the Rings TV show.
No release date has been set.
