Lord of the Rings Online Announces First Free Content Update

While we’re talking about LotR Online, before the launch date has even arrived, Turbine has already announced their first free content update, Shores of Evendim. This update, billed as the “first of many free updates,” will allow players to journey to Evendim, and to adventure there. They’ll even get to help Aragorn in his quest to reforge Narsil.

This update will include new monsters, new quests, new zones, and even changes to the music system. It will also add a raid encounter. In many cases, announcing new content prior to launching a game is highly suspect, but if this update is what we can expect from Turbine, maybe LotR Online will break that paradigm.
