Amazon Game Studios has cancelled a planned massively multiplayer online game based in the Lord Of The Rings universe. Announced in 2019, the project was intended to launch as a free-to-play game for PC and consoles, in partnership with developer Athlon Games. The developer was recently acquired by Chinese company Tencent, and an Amazon spokesperson told tech website The Verge that terms to continue development could not be agreed between the two companies. The Lord Of The Rings project team will now work on other games for the company, the spokesperson added.
