LotR: War in the North Goes Behind the Scenes to Talk Three-Player Co-Op

The Lord of the Rings: War in the North

Written Friday, September 30, 2011 By Lee Bradley

Here's the latest behind-the-scenes vignette for Lord of the Rings: War in the North, concentrating on the game's three-player co-op.

With teams comprised of Elves, Rangers and Dwarfs, the LotR: WitN co-op experience offers each character a specific skill set. So in this case the Elf is equipt with a bow and able to shield from attacks, the Ranger can turn invisible and sneak up on enemies, while the Dwarf is the tank character, wading head first into battle.

There are also challenge missions in the game that you and two friends can play together. These exist seperate to the main campaign. Check out the trailer for full details. It's looking pretty good, truth be told.

Lord of the Rings: War in the North launches on November 22nd, 2011 in North America and November 25th in Europe.

	@ #1; only you can decide whether or not the game, or any game, is "good"...

	@4 Why you gotta be mean to Canadians bro? What did Canada ever do to you? On topic, I am really excited for this game, but I thought this game was going to release on the 1st or 2nd of November, not on the 22nd....

	For a second, you guys convinced me there was a new game on the forums. You know, the only rule is you have to respond to the post directly above yours. I shall carry on.. @8 Yeah, totally ridiculous that they think it will compete with the massive mainstream releases in November. Ooh oh! Somebody do me now! ;)
