New Details On The Lord Of The Rings MMO, Including Its Art Style, Have Emerged
As part of Amazon’s gigantic push into gaming, the company is developing a new Lord of the Rings MMO with developers who previously worked on Destiny, WoW, and Planetside, among others. The game is in development at the company’s Irvine, California studio, and now some of the first details about the game have emerged thanks to job listings.
A job ad for a senior character artist on the Lord of the Rings project calls for a person who will help create what sounds like a new art style for the game. The listing states, “We’re seeking an art style for our game that is ‘different-at-a-glance’ from the games and movies that have come before us.”
The listing goes on: “We need an artist with bravery and artistic skills to help us do something new.”
