Pandemic Studios Announces Development Of The Lord Of The Rings: Conquest
‘Conquest’ Grants Players Freedom to Fight Epic ‘Rings’ Battles Any Way Desired

Description

Set in “The Lord of the Rings” universe of J.R.R. Tolkien as depicted by the Academy Award®-winning films, players will finally fight the entirety of these epic battles any way they want. In addition to crusading as the heroic forces of good, for the first time ever in a ‘The Lord of the Rings’ action title they’ll conquer Middle-earth while playing as the legions of Sauron’s evil army, including Cave-trolls, Oliphaunts, the Balrog and Sauron himself.

Features

  • 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!
