With the shadow drop of a remaster giving us a chance to revisit Middle-Earth we take a trio of warriors to assist the Fellowship of the Ring by distracting and taking on Sauron’s forces in Aspyr Media’s The Lord of the Rings: War in the North – Legacy Edition.
The Lord of the Rings: War in the North – Legacy Edition brings the cult-classic action RPG back to modern platforms, sending players into the darker reaches of Middle-earth during the War of the Ring. Form your own Fellowship as the Ranger Eradan, Dwarf Farin, or Elven Loremaster Andriel and journey north to stop Agandaûr, a powerful servant of Sauron building an army while the Fellowship of the Ring undertakes its own legendary quest. Battle through locations including Fornost and Mount Gundabad as you uncover a story taking place alongside the events of The Lord of the Rings.
Designed around three-hero cooperative action, combat combines brutal melee encounters, ranged attacks, magic, loot, and RPG character progression, with each hero offering their own abilities and skill trees. The Legacy Edition modernizes the adventure with hot-swappable characters, refined enemy targeting, an improved interface, autosaving, numerous fixes, and other quality-of-life improvements. Whether adventuring solo or assembling a Fellowship with friends, War in the North – Legacy Edition offers another chance to experience one of Middle-earth’s darker and more action-packed journeys
