There's a TON of news this week as Amazon Games announces that MMOs are back on the menu, boys! A new deal with Embracer group means work is beginning on a new Lord of the Rings (LOTR) based MMO and the New World team heads up the project as the VP throws a little smack at LOTRO. Overwatch 2 decided NOT to do the entire reason they gave for Overwatch 2 being a thing by ending the PvE plans they originally had, and Bloodhunt goes into maintenance mode! All that and more on this week's Always Online!
