A brand new The Lord of the Rings game is in development, and has been for some time.

Sources close to the game tell Insider Gaming that a new title is set to be, at least partially, funded by the Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO). This funding should roughly equate to $100 million, give or take.

The deal has been in the works since last year, and, while not signed yet due to the number of moving parts, is said to be made official "soon" and could happen as early as next week. Regarding current funding of the game's development, it has been funded internally.

More LOTR content is always welcome news, as long as it isn't like the Golem atrocity previously released. I will say, given the fact that Abu Dhabi Investment Office is involved, doesn't give me much confidence.
