EA renews license for The Lord of The Rings

EA recently announced that it had renewed the license to launch more games within Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings world. EA has developed games based on Tolkien’s trilogy of books and based on New Line Cinema’s films of The Lord of The Rings since 2001. The new title is scheduled to be released in 2008 and promises to engage gamers in compelling adventures on Middle-earth inspired by the books and movies.

“The Lord of the Rings is an incredible canvas to create epic games,” said Frank Gibeau, EA’s executive vice president and general manager of North American publishing. “We look forward to our next project with New Line Cinema and Tolkien Enterprises scheduled to ship in 2008.”

“We have a long history of making great games with EA and are thrilled to extend our longstanding relationship,” said David Imhoff, New Line’s senior executive vice president of worldwide licensing and merchandising. “We look forward to working closely with EA to create even more compelling Lord of the Rings adventures in the future.”
