A brand new re-release of The Lord of the Rings: War in the North has been launched out of the blue on modern consoles and PC.
Aspyr has remastered The Lord of the Rings: War in the North to modern platforms, much to the joy of hardcore Middle-Earth fans. The game is now available on Xbox Series X|S, PS5, Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, and PC for $17.99 until August 25th, and then the price will rise to $19.99. The new release features 60fps, bug fixes, and various quality of life changes such as the ability to lock on to enemies, and the option to hot swap to different characters on the fly.
The Lord of the Rings: War in the North originally released on Xbox 360, PS3, and PC in November 2011, but it wasn’t exactly a smash hit. The game got mixed reviews from critics, with IGN giving it a 7/10, noting that the game doesn’t take enough risks and feels a bit bland. It also didn’t perform super well commercially, as it released around the same time as juggernauts like Modern Warfare 3 and, perhaps most notably, Skyrim.
