Electronic Arts–publisher of Battlefield, Mass Effect, and Dragon Age–is bringing a new Lord of the Rings mobile game. It is set to be a free-to-play collectible RPG and will be called: The Lord of the Rings: Heroes of Middle-Earth. No concept art or details have been released by EA as of yet.
EA is working with Middle-earth Enterprises. According to chief brand and licensing officer, Fredrica Drotos, the game will be “solely inspired by Middle-Earth as described in the literary works of J.R.R. Tolkien.”
