Update 25.3 Release Notes

Here are the Release Notes for Update 25.3, released on Wednesday, January 22nd.

Of Special Note:

New Minas Morgul Expansion Instances

This update brings three new Instances to the game, available to anyone who has purchased the Minas Morgul expansion. Click here to learn more about the expansion.

The following instances are now available:

  • Bar Nirnaeth, The Houses of Lamentation - This profane temple stands at the edge of the hidden vale of Thuringwath, and is known only from the darkest of whispers, until now. The temple's undead guardians and wicked cultists have grown restless since the Dark Lord's fall, and yearn for blood and souls to slake the thirst of an even darker presence lurking in the mountains beyond.
  • Ghashan-Kutot, The Halls of Black Lore - These halls were once a sanctuary of light and repository of all wisdom in Minas Ithil. In the years since the city fell under the sway of the Morgul, however, the power of the Enemy has corrupted it, and these halls are now an archive of foul, forbidden knowledge. Face its keeper and survive his sorcery, or be tormented by enemies thought long defeated!
  • The Fallen Kings - This Instance takes place during the Second Age, and is only available as a six-person version. Fight the Nine Nazgûl or succumb on the battlefield!
