OF THE RING™ ONLINE SLOT GAME NOW LIVE WITH OPERATORS
ISLE OF MAN – Microgaming (www.microgaming.com) today announces
the launch of its highly anticipated flagship game, The Lord of
the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring™.
The company is developing a series of graphic rich online video
slots based on this popular movie Trilogy and will use animation
material, themes, and characters, from The Lord of the Rings™
Trilogy motion pictures, including The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship
of the Ring™; The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers™;
and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King™. The games
will be available to adults in countries where online gaming is
permitted.
The online slot game is the first to utilise Microgaming’s
new Cinematic Spins™ technology, allowing gamers to see clips
from the film with every spin. It features famous scenes from the
film, including Ringwraiths during the attack at Weathertop, Balrog
in the Mines of Moria, and Uruk-hai in the woods of Middle-earth.
Players will also enjoy seeing characters from the films including
Frodo, Aragorn, Saruman and the deadly Black Riders.
Roger Raatgever, CEO Microgaming comments: "The Lord of the
Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring™ is a hugely exciting launch
for Microgaming and we’re thrilled to see the game now live
with our operators. This new game pushes the limits of what can
be done with online slots; the look and feel alone is like an extension
of the motion picture, which is known and loved by fans everywhere.
This is an important deal for Microgaming and we’re confident
that our operators will see a great deal of demand from their players,
now the game has been released."
