Update 20 is here!

The first of three Mordor updates has just landed at Lord of the Rings Online and it has drawn massive crowds back to the game to play this iconic moment in Middle-earth history!

“The Black Gate Opens!”  J.R.R. Tolkien

I don’t think it would be an overstatement to say that LOTRO players are as excited as they have ever been about the game, since many have been waiting years for this moment to come!

On Tuesday Lord of the Rings Online uploaded Update 20, which allows players to engage in the Battle of the Black Gate! Probably one of the most anticipated moments in the history of the game. Update 21 will allow players to enter Mordor and still a third Update will come later this year.
