Turbine's F2P MMORPG Ether Saga Online will release a new expansion Rise Of Isengard that brings players to the east world Middle-earth, Isengard. According to the game's publisher Warner Bros. Interactive, the expansion will be available for purchase in the Store in the Fall and it increases the level cap to 70 and opens new regions.

Together with the new level cap, new traits, virtues, skills and class quests will be added. The expansion also provides a revamped monster play system that includes opening up the feature to all players, changes to monster player skills and advancement and a brand new region for players to battle for or against the forces of evil. You can read more details about the expansion in the official press release.

ESO GOLD is Turbine's second MMORPG that switched from P2P to F2P (you have to buy adventure pack if you want to continue though), which significantly increased its player base by over a million and Turbine doubled its revenue by the end. Although ESO and DDO apply the same mode that both subscribe mode and free-to-play are available, ESO's cash shop seems to be harder than DDO's with some obstacles for free players and even for premium players.
