Just yesterday, Amazon revealed that its four-year-old fantasy MMORPG New World would be coming to an end with no future DLC or updates planned – and now, it seems that its other in-progress Lord of the Rings MMO might've been axed as well.
The news of the Lord of the Rings project's potential cancellation comes amid the thousands of Amazon Games layoffs, as former senior gameplay engineer Ashleigh Amrine seemingly hints at it in a new LinkedIn post. "This morning I was part of the layoffs at Amazon Games, alongside my incredibly talented peers on New World and our fledgling Lord of the Rings game," writes Amrine, notably going on to say, "y'all would have loved it."
