News: Take a look at this brand new trailer that showcases the world of Middle-earth: Shadow of War that you will get to experience later this year.

Warner Bros has just released a new trailer for Middle-earth: Shadow of War that shows off an impressive looking open world. The video introduces viewers to the vast environments within Middle-earth, stretching beyond Mordor, and giving fans the first glimpse of various new environments to explore, including the Island of Nurn, Cirith Ungol, Gorgoroth and more. Through the innovative Nemesis System, every player experiences a unique world to explore and share and every area of the world is larger, more varied and more dynamic than ever before.

Set between the events of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, Middle-earth: Shadow of War is an open-world action RPG that continues the original narrative of Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor. Players will be engrossed in a richer, more personal and expansive world full of epic heroes and villains, iconic locations, original enemy types, more personalities and a new cast of characters with untold stories.

Middle-earth: Shadow of War is currently slated to be released on August 22, 2017 for Xbox One, Project Scorpio, PC and PS4. It is interesting that Warner Bros specifically calls out Project Scorpio and one has to wonder what that exactly means. Check out the trailer below and tell us what you think.
