A new Lord of the Rings MMO from Amazon is in the works for consoles and PC, and while there is already an existing Lord of the Rings MMORPG from 2007 that still receives new content and is played to this day, Amazon Games has said the comparison between the two titles is like going from “black and white movies to color.”
That’s according to Amazon Games vice president Christoph Hartmann, in a new interview with Gamesindustry.biz.
“But looking just at the technology, where we’re at now, and where it will be in a couple of years, it’s just worlds apart,” Hartmann said in regards to the comparison between the two different LOTR MMOs. “It’s a little exaggeration if I say it’s going to be like black and white movies to color, but that’s the approach I want to take. It’s just a completely different world.”
