Zyuu — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 00:07:03 GMT

Turbine and Codemasters Online recently announced that there's a chance for everyone to participate in the beta program of Mines of Moria, the very first expansion to Lord of the Rings Online. It has entered the final stages of its beta program and if you're in North America or Europe you can sign up for a chance to explore the "dark majesty of the world beneath Middle-earth".

The Mines of Moria Beta Program is by invitation only and over time more and more players will be invited. Beginning today, players can register for a chance to participate in the Beta Program by visiting http://www.unlocktheminesofmoria.com.

“Mines of Moria extends the world of Middle-earth into the dark heart of the Misty Mountains where players will explore one of the largest underground worlds ever created. The Legendary Items system where players can craft unique and powerful weapons and armor that will grow in power and value is just one of the breakthrough features that will further establish The Lord of the Rings Online as one of the world’s premium online games,” said Jeffrey Steefel, Executive Producer of The Lord of the Rings Online. “Player enthusiasm continues to exceed our expectations at every milestone and we are very excited to enter this stage of our Beta Program and take the next major step toward our launch.”

Lord of the Rings Online Expansion Announced

Kody — Fri, 14 Mar 2008 23:03:40 GMT

It's been nearly a year since the release of Lord of the Rings Online, and in that time the team at Turbine has made incredible strides improving the game, adding new features, and fixing issues discovered by players. Book 12 is the latest update, but the previous patch -- Book 11 -- introduced player housing, among other game enhancements.

At Connect '08, Codemasters' new (and potentially annual) event based around games the company publishes and develops, Turbine announced the next step for the Lord of the Rings Online franchise.

Enter the Mines of Moria

As the press release states, players will be able to enter the Mines of Moria for the first time ever in the game; the storied locale was visited briefly in the movie trilogy, and now players of Lord of the Rings Online have the opportunity to explore the depths of this ancient dwarven city as well.

The expansion will also introduce six new books to the Lord of the Rings Online epic story, bringing the current tally up to 18 books in total. Another addition in the expansion is to raise the level cap for players to 60, opening up new virtues, traits, skills, and class quests, along with higher crafting caps -- allowing players to craft the most powerful items to-date.

The two biggest features for the expansion announced thus far, though, are two new playable classes -- the Rune-keeper and the Warden -- as well as an all-new Legendary Item system that gives players the opportunity to forge their very own legendary item, similar to the likes of Gandalf's Glamdring or Bilbo's Sting.

Turbine urges players to keep a lookout on http://www.unlocktheminesofmoria.com/ -- the expansion's official website -- as they will be introducing special mini-games for users to participate in over time.
