Warner Bros has just released a new update for Shadow of Mordor that should help keep you busy until the release of Shadow of War later this year. This new update brings the Nemesis Forge with it that will allow a player to bring their top Nemesis and Follower from Shadow of Mordor to Shadow of War. In Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, players created countless personal stories of revenge through the unique enemies and allies generated by the Nemesis System. With the Nemesis Forge, these stories continue in Middle-earth: Shadow of War by importing a returning player’s arch Nemesis from Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, while also identifying a player’s most loyal Orc follower, who can help fight and defend against Sauron’s forces. The Nemesis Forge is now available for Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Steam.
For newcomers to the series who want to create their own unique Nemesis, Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor is available to try out for free on Xbox One and Steam starting today at 8 a.m. PDT through July 9.
Additionally, players will be able to purchase Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Steam for 80 percent off the regular price. The sale timing for each platform is listed below:
Xbox One: On sale now through July 17
PlayStation 4: On sale now through July 11
Steam: On sale now through July 10
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.
