The Lord of the Rings Online Welcome Back Weekend

Turbine has kicked off another “welcome back weekend” for The Lord of the Rings Online, granting former subscribers the (free) ability to check out how the game has evolved since the last time they logged in. Word is:

We’re inviting all former LOTRO subscribers to play for free* from January 21st through January 25th! Jump back in and play one of your old characters, or start a new one. Plus, to help celebrate, you’ll get a +5% XP*** boost for all mob (monster) kills and free travel at all Stable-masters!

Some of the new updates you may notice when you come back for the free LOTRO weekend include:
‘¢ Lone Lands Revisited the western area has been completely redone

‘¢ Legendary Items updates Part 1 and Part 2
