Tags: Lord of the Rings cRPGPer this news item, C&VG is reporting that Warthog Texas is working on a new CRPG based on the Lord of the Rings novels. Here's the juice:
We can reveal that the Warthog Texas - formerly Fever Pitch Studios - is working on a PC RPG for Vivendi Universal Games, believed to be known as 'Shadows of Mordor.' Rumours linking Warthog and Lord of the Rings have been rife of late, with a UK financial publication suggesting that Warthog Texas was working with EA on a title.
But we can confirm that Warthog's title is not the widely rumoured LOTR Trilogy game for EA, but instead a brand new RPG for Vivendi, the holder of rights to Tolkien's fiction.
One highly placed source, speaking to us anonymously, said: "The rumours about Warthog doing a Lord of the Rings title for EA aren't true - but there's one coming for Vivendi..."
Wonder if our good buddy Fallout's Chris Taylor is working on this one.
