*All players have free access to Volume I of the epic story and may experience any of the 11 pre-Moria expansion regions of Eriador. Some Eriador regions require a quest pack purchase in order to accept any new quests in that region. If you have not already upgraded to Mines of Moria™ or Siege of Mirkwood™, you will not have access to that expansion content since LOTRO has gone Free to Play. If you have upgraded to either expansion pack, you will continue to have access to all content that your account currently offers for the life of the account. The Rune-keeper & Warden classes are automatically bundled with Mines of Moria™.
