As far as we know, the game ROM is still not released to the public, but we hope Frederic could share it in the future.There are not many details about this lost project, but from the few screenshots shared on Twitter by japanese fans, it seems players would have been able to move around a city map with many different buildings, and in each one there would have been a mini game to play.

The title was listed in a few EA promotional leaflets, but as far as we know screenshots were never shown in magazines at the time. In 2015 users from the Sega-16 forum noticed some sprites animations from this cancelled Lord of the Rings Genesis game in an article posted by former EA developer Ray Tobey, who created the Animax 2D editor used by the company. ![]() Because of this, we can assume The Lord of the Rings would also have been a fighting game. ![]() Images: Electronic Arts Fighting Read more Mega Drive Genesis, Sega Zodiac (Ubisoft) Sega Mega Drive Cancelled monokoma 04-11-2019 No Comments Zodiac is a cancelled shoot em up in development at Ubisoft around 1992 1993, by a team composed of Frederic Houde (one of the designers behind the original Rayman and Tonic Trouble) and Laurent Cluzel (who worked on Starush, a 1992 Amiga shmup, and later on The City of Lost Children ). Frederic talked about the game in an interview by Arcade Attack: How did you get the opportunity to work for Ubisoft My best friend Frederic Markus worked on a game called Starush for Amiga, Atari ST PC while I was finishing my military obligation. We had á strategy to shów something big tó Ubisoft to bé able to maké another (console) vérsion, me as thé main programmer. We decided tó show a hugé boss on thé Amiga platform, sométhing the current programmér for this gamé was not capabIe of Ubisoft hád no more thán 50 employees at this time. I remember shówing my Game Bóss Demo to Yvés (best Big Bóss on earth), hé told me ók, I dont knów the project yóu will work ón but heres somé money, consider yourseIf working for Ubisóft. Tell us á bit more abóut the first gamé you worked ón: I énded up making Z0DIAC (Starush inspired) ón the Sega Méga Drive. It took mé a year ánd a haIf, with Laurent CIuzel as graphic ártist, making the éngine, coding the tooIs, aIone in my apartment Nó internet át this time Thé game was 100 finished, but Sega Mega Drive began to slow down at that time and unfortunately Ubisoft decided not to release the game. In there we can read Ubisoft decided to cancel the game because of the competition from Thunder Force IV and the high cost of cartridges, that would make hard to profit from its release.
