Turbine, Inc has confirmed the rumours about the change of the name of Middle-Earth Online, that now is called The Lord of the Rings Online. Turbine made this confirmation in the announcement of the Turbine Nation, a special event hosted in the Rhode Island Convention Center. Moreover they have published a new screeshot of the game.
Save the date! Turbine Nation will be held at the
Rhode Island Convention Center on Saturday, August 13th, 2005!
- Meet the developers for Asheron’s Call, Asheron’s Call 2, Dungeons & Dragons Online, and The Lord of the Rings Online.
- Attend the Asheron’s Call Player Lunch.
- Panels and workshops.
- Play Dungeons & Dragons Online.
- Win chances to get into the DDO beta!
- Get a sneak peek at The Lord of the Rings Online.
- And more!
Pricing for the event will be as follows:
- $49 early registration / $60 afterwards
- $30 AC Player Lunch - must register early
We are also considering holding a special “ViP” reception the night before the event, Friday August 12th. For a total price of $99 players can attend the ViP reception, the AC Player lunch, and the main Turbine Nation event. The ViP reception would be limited to a specific number of people and would be a chance to spend more time with the developers and see some special “behind the scenes” stuff! Before we confirm this we’d like to hear your feedback.
An official announcement will be coming in the next couple of weeks and early registration will begin sometime in June.
