Turbine to Showcase Highly Anticipated The Lord of the Rings Online(TM): Shadows of Angmar(TM) at E3 2006; Leading MMO Publisher to Offer Playable Demos at Booth #2900 in the West Hall
"Turbine has come a long way since starting as a small development studio nearly 12 years ago," said Jeffrey Anderson, president and CEO of Turbine, Inc. "E3 2006 serves as a milestone for the company as we have evolved into one of the largest publishers of MMO games in the industry. We can't wait to show off our latest titles."
The Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar (LOTRO) allows players to explore the most famous fantasy world of all time, fight the evil minions of the Dark Lord Sauron, and advance their heroes by adventuring through the vast reaches of Middle-earth(TM). Turbine will also begin the registration process for its Beta Program for LOTRO and offer a playable version of the Weathertop experience in its booth.
DUNGEONS & DRAGONS ONLINE: Stormreach was released in February 2006 to critical acclaim and quickly became one of the fastest-growing MMOs in North America. Following on the heels of the Dragon's Vault module, which released in April, Turbine will also be announcing a range of expanded player features and content scheduled to be released later this year.
Executives and members of the development teams from Turbine will be on hand in the company's booth (#2900) located in the West Hall of the Los Angeles Convention Center.
