Lord of the Rings: War in the North is a co-op Action RPG that immerses you and your friends in a brutal new chapter in the War of the Ring. Drawing inspiration from both the literary and film rights to world of The Lord of the Rings, players will bloody their axes on a wide range of deadly enemies and traverse both established and never-before-seen locations. The result is a journey that is both epic and intimate, familiar yet unexpected.
Action meets RPG
Intense, visceral, and satisfying combat. Rich, layered, and impactful character progression. In War in the North, you get both. Fight through the brutal realities of the War of the Ring, as you customize a new character in the universe Tolkien created. Immerse yourself and make your own mark on Middle-earth.
CO-OP at its Core
Middle-earth is too brutal for any one man to survive. Draw upon the strengths of each characters unique racial abilities and build your own fellowship of the three heroes to confront the growing army in the North. You must fight together or you will die alone.
An Untold Story
While much attention and focus has been placed on the journey of the One Ring, the assault on Middle-earth hits all corners of the map. War in the North turns our attention toward an integral part of the storyline that is grounded in details from the nooks and various appendices.
Meh. Nothing new. Nothing special. Characters are uninteresting. Gameplay is uninspired. Kills time if you haven't got any better games to play I guess. I'll be returning it after a few days.
How great is a game that needs a walkthrough for every step of gameplay? Then upon hitting the first boss kills you numerous times. I just give up. Toss it in the pile that maybe someday i will forget about and try again. A easy difficulty would have been nice to include in making of the game. I give it nothing but raspberries.
