Turbine to announce console MMO plans early next year

[Mr. Hrm]

Turbine will announce console MMO “products” early next year, Lord of the Rings Online dev boss Jeff Steefel told VG247 today. Note the plural.

“We’re really not talking about what our console product plans are, but we will be soon,” he said when asked specifically if we’re going to see a console version of LotRO.

“I would guess by early next year’s we’ll be able to be much more specific about what we’re doing with console, what kind of products we’re putting on console.”

Steefel said that the developer’s work on console games is currently focused on working with platform holders to pave the way for the first wave of console MMOs, and that Turbine’s console plans are still early.
