      Electronic Arts announced the development of The Lord of the Rings, The
White Council, an all-new role playing game for the Xbox 360 video game
and entertainment system, PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system,
and PC.
The game, inspired by the New Line Cinema feature film trilogy that grossed more than $3 billion, will feature an original storyline derived from J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings novels under an agreement with EA. The game is scheduled to ship in late 2007. Players have the freedom to explore the open world of Tolkien's Middle-earth(TM) in The Lord of the Rings, The White Council. Players can choose their role as a man, an elf, a dwarf, or a hobbit. Each role's destiny is to become a hero allied with the White Council, whose members include the famed characters Gandalf, Saruman, Galadriel, and Elrond. A combination of stunning graphics and expansive environments, along with the freedom of movement demonstrates the innovation and quality of the next-generation RPG, where players can create their own adventures. The Lord of the Rings, The White Council has not yet been rated by the ESRB. For more information about the game, please visit: www.whitecouncil.ea.com . |
