Release date & features of "Middle Earth Shadow Of War"

Per Digital Spy, "Middle Earth Shadow Of War" boasts an improved Nemesis system. Also, Talion heads an army this time, aiming to completely destroy Mordor. Just like its predecessor, each region in the game is still ruled by a warlord.

Additionally, gamers will experience a lot of betrayals from members of their armies. Most of the soldiers would hold a grudge if left behind in battle. Both friendlies and enemies in "Middle Earth Shadow Of War" would have special traits that would either help or hinder in the completion of the quest. Some examples are a living battering ram to break open gates and an armored cavalry to shove through front lines.

Interestingly, "Middle Earth Shadow Of War" offers the ability to ride and dominate a drake. Indeed, players will experience what it is like being a Nazgul too. The game is expected to be released on Aug 22.
