The Lord of the Rings: Amazon is preparing a new MMO game


Amazon has announced the development of a new open-world MMO Lord of the Rings in partnership with Embracer Group.

Amazon Games and Embracer Group are joining forces to create a new MMO game based on The Lord of the Rings. The game should be developed by Amazon Games Orange County, studio which shone with the title New World. We can say that it is a nice revenge for the American giant which, two years ago, had to abandon a similar project following the failure of negotiations between it and Tencent.

What’s next for Amazon’s Lord of the Rings MMO?

Following a partnership with the Middle-Earth companies of the Embracer Group, Amazon Games plans to design and launch an open-world MMORPG inspired by the universe of JRR Tolkien in The Lord of the Rings (LOTR). The project is currently still in the preparatory stages of production, but Amazon has assured that the game will incorporate “loved stories from the Lord of the Rings trilogy and the Hobbit”

We’re excited to announce our collaboration with Embracer Group and Middle-earth Enterprises for our upcoming MMORPG based on the iconic The Lord of the Rings property!

Embracer Freemode CEO Lee Guinchard also said, “The world of Middle-earth continues to prove endlessly fertile ground for creators and Amazon Games is passionate about creating immersive worlds and fascinating and publish games for a global audience.

And while details are being kept under wraps as to the name and release date for now, Amazon plans to launch the game on PC and console. It should be noted that this is not the first time that Embracer Group has collaborated with Amazon. Indeed, the previous year they revealed that Amazon would give full support and publish the next Tomb Raider game developed by Crystal Dynamics, a studio also owned by Embracer Group.

How the New World team at Amazon Games handles the Lord of the Rings-based MMO remains to be seen. In the meantime, this period is proving to be particularly busy for the games in Middle-earth. EA just launched the mobile title Heroes of Middle-earth while action-adventure game Gollum is set to release on May 25 on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

The network showed the first images of the canceled MMO game based on Marvel comics


Recently, Swedish company Enad Global 7 announced the cancellation of an untitled MMO game featuring characters from Marvel Comics that was announced last fall. Recently, interface designer Ramiro Galan shared the official concept drawing of the canceled project.

In the pictures you can see the character customization menu. At the start of the game, players had to choose their hero’s gender, name, face, body type, costume and superpowers and join one of four factions (X-Men, Fantastic Four, SHIELD and The Avengers).

Judging by the art, the developers planned to create cartoon-like graphics with rich and bright colors. As Ramiro himself notes, the game was stylistically similar to the cartoon Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

It was previously announced that Microsoft could release a game about Spider-Man instead of Sony, but immediately rejected the offer. Marvel also showed how it improved the quality of CGI graphics in the She-Hulk series. One enthusiast showed how to create mods – he turned a God of War bakery into a Simpsons game

  • A fan showed Tom Holland’s Spider-Man as a mutant with six arms. This is what this character looked like in the 90s cartoon
  • The God of War artist reveals his vision of one of Marvel’s most powerful supervillains and the X-Men’s worst enemy
  • New photos from the set of “Guardians of the Galaxy 3” prove that the film deserves entry into the “Guinness Book of Records”.

He cheats in Total War, but gets banned in Destiny 2. One of the best players in the MMO receives a radical punishment


Bungie has expelled Cruz, one of its most legendary players, from Destiny 2. The reason for the sanction? According to the information that he himself has shared on his channels, the security team has caught him using cheats…in a different game. The one in question, furthermore, is completely incompatible with the MMO in question; so many have sympathized with the affected person.

cross carries four World’s First behind him: he has been present on the fastest teams in the world to complete several in D2, including “The Crystal Chamber”, “The End of Crota”, “The Fall of the King” and “Oath of the Disciple”. Unfortunately, it looks like his career ends with a message from Bungie stating that the team has closely monitored the ban and confirmed the use of cheats that violate the terms of use.

The program in question is indeed used to cheat, but as we said above it is designed specifically to old Total War games. “They have an outdated economy system, so I usually run a program to alleviate the situation beyond what some Steam Workshop mods alleviate it,” says Cruz on his X account (formerly Twitter).

His thread continues: “the program cannot modify any file because it is strictly limited around the economics of these games. I’m sure that after I closed it, because I’ve been playing a lot of Shogun 2 recently, it was still active in the background.” ArtMoney, which is what it’s called, allows players like Cruz to unlock elite units faster by adding funds to their army typing a simple command on a console. It can jump into a regular detection, but as you can see, it is of no use in Destiny 2.

Cruz’s future in Destiny 2

After challenging the issue with Bungie, the response he got from support indicated that “an editing/memory program marked as a cheat was detected and was denied as a false positive.” Since then, journalists close to Destiny 2 such as Paul Tassi or Tom Warren have shared this story on their channels, perhaps in the hope of encouraging the Washington studio to review the case once again. Unless this happens, Elysium will have to do without his companion.
