While several other MMORPGs had large servers merges in the past year, according to Turbine’s developers, The Lord of the Rings Online player base is growing. In fact there are 4 new servers between Russia and Korea.

While we never release exact numbers I can tell you that we’ve seen month-on-month growth in the Turbine-operated service all year. This ties in closely with a bunch of marketing programs we’ve been running – including the currently active Anniversary promotions. I can’t comment on behalf of our partners, but domestic growth + new markets + promotion in the EU means we’re hitting new peaks overall.

Between the obvious quality of the game and the clear value of our $9/$9 offer we’ve been making some big strides. We’re not sitting back and resting, however: There are new campaigns and promotions in the works to continue to drive this growth.
