The Lord of the Rings: War in the North - Legacy Edition

About the game

War in the North unfolds far from the Fellowship's path, and this updated edition of the role-playing game presents that conflict in a darker, grittier Middle-earth. While Frodo and Samwise make their way to Mount Doom, a new Fellowship must defend the North against the armies Sauron's servant Agandaûr, a Black Númenórean, has rallied in the ruins of Fornost. Three heroes with distinct skills are available — Eradan the Dúnedain Ranger, Andriel the Elven Loremaster and Farin the Dwarven Champion — and players can hot-swap between them instantly. Progression is built on skills, abilities and gear, while Beleram, a mighty Great Eagle, strikes from the skies to turn the tide of battle. Two players can join on one console or three online, and the journey passes through Rivendell, Lórien, the Lonely Mountain and Mirkwood, with encounters including Aragorn, Gandalf and Elrond. The updated edition reworks the visuals and other elements.
