”Turbine will continue to work with Codemasters in Europe on distribution of The Lord of the Rings Online game,” said Martin Tremblay, president of Warner Bros. Interactive, to Eurogamer.
”Turbine’s recently announced acquisition is very positive for the future of its titles. The move will not impact European players where Codemasters Online retains co-publishing and operator rights for The Lord of the Rings Online,” a Codemasters spokesperson added.
We can infer that Codemasters won’t be responsible for LOTRO in any other territories, and we’re told to stay tuned for announcements regarding Dungeons & Dragons Online and Asheron’s Call.
