Middle-earth Shadow Of War NEW Monsters Trailer

Posted on 21 Aug 2017

Tolkein’s Middle-earth is a land with plenty of ecological variety. The first Shadow Of game didn’t do a great job of highlighting that by only having a handful of creatures but Shadow Of War looks to be emphasising the worst monster of all, microtransactions. No, we don’t regret it, the dig is well deserved.

Seriously though, just seeing that Balrog rising from the lava of Mordor has me wanting to fight it. Preferably while riding a sweet drake or wyrm. A bigger variety of creatures might help alleviate the grind of fighting hundreds of Orcs and Uruk Hai but it’s never as satisfying to play knifey-throaty with a cat as it is with a humanoid opponent.

Middle-earth Shadow Of War is due out 10 October 2017.
