lord of the rings Online: The Shadow of Angmar has just been launched and already the developers are set to release a free expansion called The Shores of Evendim. Yep, you heard right, its FREE and adds around 60 quests and a large new area to explore.

Titled The Shores of Evendim, the free update is set in the region of Evendim, an area just north of the Shire. Adventurers must venture to the Lake of the Twilight to protect the treasures of an abandoned city to aid Aragorn in his fight to best the evil forces of Angmar.

As well as packing 60 new missions, this expansion also features an epic quest in which fellow heroes join in a raid of Helegrod, to challenge a fearsome dragon called Thorog. There are nine new monsters too, plus players are promised their first encounter with an Ent.
