Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar has made its way to the North American market, but it looks like the MMORPG won't be arriving down under until sometime in May.
According to ITWire, the delay hasn't been explained by Atari, Codemasters or Turbine as of yet. On the upside, they are extending pre-order keys to automatically set to May 10, which means those who purchased in advance won't be out of any time on their grace period.
The beta version of LOTR Online was a little chunky, as beta versions are supposed to be. Still, the idea behind the title is more than intriguing and the use of mythos made it fun even with some bugs.
As ITWire is saying, "hopefully this is a delay in order to make sure the game is right from the start and not just ‘shipping down under' delays.'"
I'm thinking that's not the case because of the US launch, but who knows, maybe they are fixing some things before releasing in another market.
