Lord Of The Rings: War In The North

New Action RPG from Warner Bros. once again pits Man, Dwarf, and Elf against the forces of Mordor in this new title.

The game is supposed to be taking a mature approach to the story with authentic portrayals of the series’ epic battles and new story lines Martin Tremblay, President of Warner Bros. Interactive, stated. The game will be developed by the award winning Snowblind Studios responsible for the critically acclaimed Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance which also means there will be co-op gameplay. You will be able to play in Middle Earth with 2 other players online in an interdependent co-op adventure. It’s going to be a natural extension for Snowblind due to their well crafted action RPG games and will no doubt be a fun experience.

In LOTR: War in the North, the players will become the heroes in the great battles, engage in an excellent co-op experience, and explore vast lands. Players will experience extensive character customization and upgradeable skills, weapons, and special abilities when the game launches next year.
