Middle-earth: Shadow of War announced

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment has announced Middle-earth: Shadow of War, the sequel to Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor.

In Middle-earth: Shadow of War, an open world action adventure, players wield a new Ring of Power and confront the deadliest of enemies, including Sauron and his Nazgul, in a battle for Middle-earth.

The Nemesis System created unique personal stories through procedurally-generated enemies who remember every encounter and are differentiated by their personality, strengths and weaknesses. Middle-earth: Shadow of War expands on this system with the introduction of Followers who bring about entirely new stories of loyalty, betrayal and revenge. The Nemesis System is also expanded to create a unique personal world through Nemesis Fortresses, which allows players to utilize different strategies to conquer dynamic strongholds and create personalized worlds with their unique Orc army.

As an Xbox Play Anywhere title, players can purchase a digital version of Middle-earth: Shadow of War once and play it on both Xbox One and Windows 10 PC. Gamers can pick up where they left off on another Xbox One or Windows 10 PC, bringing all the saves, game add-ons and achievements with them at no additional cost.

Developed by Monolith Productions, Middle-earth: Shadow of War will be available for Xbox One, Project Scorpio, Windows 10 PC (Windows Store and Steam), PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 4 Pro beginning August 22, 2017.
