In this exciting, action strategy game, players fight on the side of both Good and Evil in all the biggest battles from The Lord of the Rings movies. The Battlefront format allows them to switch between characters at will, to suit the circumstance or their style, reliving – and even reinventing – the chaotic and engrossing conflicts from the films as they choose how best to tackle their objectives and defeat their enemies. In online multiplayer, gamers can choose to be Evil from the outset.
* For the first time, play as Evil characters in a brand new, ‘Evil’ campaign. Battle through scenarios after Frodo failed to destroy the One Ring; it’s good to be bad!
* Acclaimed Battlefront gameplay in a fantasy setting allows players to choose the way they fight, as Warrior, Archer, Mage or Scout in melee and ranged combat
* Online multiplayer— pick your allegiance then battle in 16-player online clashes, or in 4-player co-op campaigns
* Local multiplayer— split-screen with up to 4 players competitively or 2 player co-op
* A massive cast of characters & weapons adds great depth to the gameplay: Heroes, Wargs, Ents, Oliphaunts, Cave-trolls, the Balrog, Nazgul, ballistae, and more!
