'The Lord of the Rings Online' delivers an interactive experience filled with life and the familiar people, places and monsters from the most beloved fantasy adventure of all time. From the picturesque surroundings of the Shire to Angmar, the evil kingdom of the Witch-king, players will experience the world of Middle-earth as never before.
Jeff Anderson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Turbine, said, "The release of 'The Lord of the Rings Online' marks a momentous occasion for MMO gamers and Tolkien fans around the world. Countless adventures await gamers eager to experience Middle-earth in an entirely new way and we are confident that once they have visited this epic world, they will never want to leave."
In addition, Turbine has also announced the first update to 'The Lord of the Rings Online'. This free update, called the 'Shores of Evendim', is scheduled to be released this coming June and will include an entirely new landscape region, over 60 additional quests, the Battle for Helegrod raid, nine new monsters, and major enhancements to monster play and the music system.
'The Lord of the Rings Online' is now available for purchase at major retailers in both a Special and Standard Edition. The Special Edition retails for $59.99 (Rs 2,460 approx.), while the Standard Edition is available for $49.99 (Rs 2,049 approx.).
In a separate development, Ubisoft has announced that it is creating a new title in the Tom Clancy series, called 'Tom Clancy's EndWar'.

Talking about the game, Serge Hascoet, Chief Creative Officer at Ubisoft, said that their development teams are rejuvenated to be creating the first 100 percent next-generation Tom Clancy brand.

Meanwhile, 'Tom Clancy's EndWar' is scheduled for release on next-generation consoles by the end of this year or early next year.
