One of the long-running wish list items for Lord of the Rings Online players has been a cosmetic item system — something that Turbine previously said was too difficult to implement. However, it looks as though the studio has had a breakthrough on the tech, as it has announced that it will be introducing such a system this summer.

Executive Producer Athena Peters confirmed the details of the next patch on the forums: “But seriously, [Update] 16.2 will enter open beta this weekend so please go check it out on Bullroarer if you have the chance. This will include the new PvMP zone, Adventures of Bingo Boffin, and cosmetic weapons! Live release will be mid-summer.”

Peters went on to say that Update 17 will be coming in the fall, but she declined to provide more details on it.
