A new pet, region, and much more comes to LOTRO for its anniversary event.

This includes the addition of a new pet, a Corgi, for some reason.

The anniversary event begins today, April 20, and runs through May 11.

Party time

“Since the time of Bullroarer Took it has squabbled with the more comfortable parts of the Shire.

LOTRO players can kick off the anniversary festivities by visiting the Party Tree in the Hill in The Shire.

From there, players can collect quests and redeem anniversary tokens for special celebratory rewards.

Does this mean Corgis are canon now?

And frankly, who cares?

For the Corgis specifically, everyone who logs in during the event will get a free pupper.

Players can barter their Corgis for other items like festivity tokens, anniversary tokens, and Mithril coins.

Additionally,lots of the game’s older expansion content is now free for all players.
