Amazon Game Studios’ MMORPG New World has slipped to spring 2021. In a blog post, studio director Rich Lawrence explained that a desire to build more middle- and end-game content required delaying its previous launch date of Aug. 25. Recently, the studio also decided to pull and retool its team-based shooter, Crucible.

Amazon Game Studios announced a new Lord of the Rings free-to-play MMO is in the works for PC and consoles. Details, per Entertainment Weekly, are scant, but the game is being developed by the same studio behind Amazon’s New World MMO.
