EA’s Capital Games is developing a free-to-play video game titled The Lord of the Rings: Heroes of Middle-earth which is a collectible role-playing game that offers a “strategic, social-competitive experience.”
EA Mobile executive Malachi Boyle said in a statement that Heroes of Middle-earth will include “high-fidelity graphics, cinematic animations, and stylized art.” The game will feature fan-favorite Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit characters, EA said.
Fredrica Drotos, Middle-earth Enterprises executive said, “We are thrilled to be working with EA once again, this time to bring a mobile game solely inspired by Middle-earth…”
