Standing Stone Games announced this week that The Lord Of The Rings Online will be getting the Minas Morgul expansion on Tuesday. In the next phase of the MMO, players will head to the Dead City, Minas Morgul, looking for answers to a mystery that spans three thousand years. You'll be seeing the words of the shade of Isildur, as it unearths secrets and visions of the Second Age that have remained untold. You'll be getting a new playable landscape and new adventures from what is considered to be a crucial time in Middle-earth's history. You can see all of what's included below.
