All Lord of the Rings fans will remember that the movie, The Hobbit, An Unexpected Journey, set a new record of $84.5 in box office revenue when it opened. It was the inspiration for Kabam’s game, The Hobbit: Kingdoms of Middle-earth, which allowed players to immerse themselves in the world of Middle-earth. This game has attracted millions of players worldwide, who are occupied daily with building kingdoms and forming alliances with other players as they strategize to defend their kingdom. The characters in the game include favorites from The Hobbit movie, including Gandalf, Bilbo, Legolas and Tauriel.
The Hobbit: Kingdoms of Middle-earth met with outstanding success, with this free-to-play game earning nearly $100 million in in-game transactions during its first year. Every day, more than 4 million battles are waged. More than a million alliances have been created and 16 million cities have been built, as players continue their fascination with The Lord of the Rings culture and characters.
Now, as the second movie, The Hobbit: the Desolation of Smaug, is released December 13, Kabam has also released an expansion pack for its game. The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug Expansion Pack features the evil dragon Smaug, ready to wage war against all. To face the challenge of Smaug, players must earn new armor and weapons to equip their armies for the battle. Defeating Smaug will earn players a name in the history of Middle-earth.
The Hobbit: Kingdoms of Middle-earth can be downloaded for free from the App Store and on Google Play.
