Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and Snowblind Studios today shared a new combat vignette for the upcoming Action RPG The Lord of the Rings: War in the North, highlighting the realistic combat of war-torn Middle-earth. We invite you to experience battle as J.R.R. Tolkien imagined it; where blood-stained swords and blood-soaked battlefields pave the way on your quest to save Middle-earth. Now is the time to gather your Fellowship around you and prepare for a bloody good fight when The Lord of the Rings: War in the North releases later this year.
