The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring is a 2002 action-adventure video game developed by WXP Games for the Xbox, by Surreal Software for the PlayStation 2 and PC, and by Pocket Studios for the Game Boy Advance. The PlayStation 2 and Xbox versions were published worldwide by Black Label Games, a collaboration between Universal Interactive and Konami. The PC version was published by Black Label Games in North America and by Universal Interactive in Europe. The Game Boy Advance version was published by Sierra Entertainment in North America and Universal Interactive in Europe. The game is an officially licensed adaptation of J. R. R. Tolkien's 1954 novel, The Fellowship of the Ring, the first volume in his Lord of the Rings trilogy. Although the game was released roughly a year after Peter Jackson's film The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, and several weeks prior to his The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, it has no relationship with the film series. This is because Vivendi held the rights to the video game adaptations of the novels, whilst Electronic Arts held the rights to the video game adaptations of the films. |
