Earlier last month, Massively was invited to get a hands-on look at
Mines of Moria, the first-ever expansion for
Lord of the Rings Online with
Turbine's Adam Mersky and Moria Producer Mike Jablonn. During this special dev tour, we were treated to many of the features of the new environments, new creatures, certain landmarks and the Legendary Item system. We came back with loads of screenshots, video footage and an insatiable desire to speed up time until we can play this expansion on our own! As there is still no official launch date outside of "Fall 2008", we're getting a bit antsy for this game to hit store shelves. From what we've seen though, it's coming very soon.
We've compiled the screenshots into an enormous 43-image gallery that also acts as a comprehensive visual tour of what we were shown of Moria. Simply start the tour by clicking on the first image in the gallery, or the link below. And when you're done, check out
our video of the tour.
