Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment is developing a next-generation, third-person action game based on a story of vengeance and redemption set in Middle-earth. Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor has gamers take on the role of Talion, a character who’s resurrected by a spirit of vengeance after his own life was taken. He’s empowered with many abilities and his main mission is to destroy those who have wronged him the night his family was slain in front of him.
Although the background of the game stays the same, each player can create his own experience through the Nemesis System. Enemy relationships and characteristics are shaped by each player’s actions and decisions during gameplay. Gamers are even able to craft their own battles, enemies, and rewards within the Mordor world that adapts to and remembers their choices.
Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor is in development for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, and Xbox 360 by Monolith Productions and Middle-earth Enterprises.
