Warner Bros announced today that it’s bringing Middle-Earth: Shadow of War, a free-to-play real-time RPG, to mobile this fall. The game will follow the adventures of Talion (the hero of Shadow of Mordor PC game) through Mordor, and will feature all kinds of familiar characters from both the last PC game and, of course, The Lord of the Rings. Expect to see Celebrimbor, Eltariel, Gimli, Boromir , and more.
IUGO Mobile Entertainment is developing Shadow of War for mobile. The studio has experience turning popular brands into mobile RPGs with The Walking Dead: Road to Survival, which has made over $168 million from in-app purchases. The series’ famed Nemesis system will still be a part of the mobile game, so you can still create your own orc army while running into enemies that remember your past encounters.
You can pre-register starting right now, and if you do, you will receive an exclusive character bundle featuring Ratbag and an Orc starter army. If you pre-register for Android, you’ll get a version of Shelob in her fair form character, playable for the first time.
Interesting!
