The Lord of the Rings Online publisher, Daybreak Game Company, was mentioned in a large portion of an EG7 investors’ briefing that suggests Lord of the Rings Online will receive “visual and technical updates” on both PC and next-gen consoles, which sounds like the game is in the works for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
The presentation seems to suggest these updates will arrive in the game, which originally launched back in 2007, will arrive sometime in 2022. “Set in the world of Middle-earth portrayed in The Lord of the Rings literary trilogy, the game will give fans around the globe a new, immersive game experience for epic exploration of the vast world of Tolkien,” a description for the Leyou and Athlon Games-developed project reads.
