This free content update will allow players to venture forth into the frozen land of Forochel. and lend aid to the Lossoth in their struggle against their ancient enemy in Angmar.

Check out some of the juicy details:

Forochel is not simply some land made up by the people at Turbine. Tolkien actually did write about the frozen lands, although it was only in passing. But those that are fans of Tolkien know that the shear amount of material he created for his fantastic realm is overwhelming, with the vast majority of it not actually taking place in the brief snapshot in time that was 'The Hobbit' and 'The Lord of the Rings'. This should allow the developers of LOTRO to expand their realm for many years to come.
