Malachi Boyle, Vice President of Mobile RPG for Electronic Arts says that “The team is filled with fans of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, and each day they bring their tremendous passion and talents together to deliver an authentic experience for players. The combination of high-fidelity graphics, cinematic animations, and stylized art immerses players in the fantasy of Middle-earth where they’ll go head-to-head with their favorite characters.”

This is not the first time that EA has worked with the Lord of The Rings license. In 2006 they released ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-earth II’ for the PC and Xbox 360. They were due to develop a second game called ‘The Lord of the Rings: The White Council’ however the game was eventually canceled.

The Lord of the Rings: Heroes of Middle-Earth will release for mobile devices. Another mobile Lord of Rings game called Lord of The Rings: Rise to War is also available for mobile devices.
