Lord of Rings War in North release date
Promising action-RPG in November.
Action role-playing game The Lord of the Rings: War in the North will be released in November, Warner Bros. has announced.
This bloody, limb-loosing game takes a trio of adventures - human, dwarf, elf - on an adventure parallel to that made famous by Tolkein's book and Peter Jackson's films.
You'll head north to the snowy lands of Gunabad and face the forces of arch-villain Agandur, Sauron's "crulest ally", according to the LOTR: War in the North website.
Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance dev Snowblind is at the helm, crafting a loot-happy action-RPG that relies heaviliy on co-op, either with AI bots, friends in the same room or friends online.
Lord of the Rings: War in the North was announced in March 2010, and so appears to have had a healthy amount of development time.
