Mines of Moria in final beta phase, Turbine is offering invites

Turbine has announced that Lord of the Rings Online expansion Mines of Moria is entering into its final beta phase. The best thing about this phase is that North American and European players are invited to test the new expansion out. Starting today, you can register for an opportunity to participate by visiting the expansion’s official website.

I’ve talked a lot about the Mines of Moria expansion. The one thing that I keep taking from it is just how massive Turbine has made the fabled dungeon. The vertical space is daunting, and the opportunity to explore is promised to be just as large. I’m especially excited about the “Legendary Items” hook. Finally, I can forge the identity of my legendary blade, “Troll-Butt Sniffer.”

The Mines of Moria expansion is slated to hit later this autumn. Also, check out some of the screenshots for the expansion below.
