About Lord of the Rings: War in the North

✦ AI summary

Team up with two friends in brutal real-time combat across Middle-earth's untold northern battlefields, where visceral action meets deep RPG progression through loot and skill upgrades. Experience the intense satisfaction of co-op survival as a custom fellowship of three heroes, where coordinated teamwork and last-second rescues make every victory genuinely earned.

The Lord of the Rings: War in the North is a co-op Action RPG that immerses you and your friends in a brutal new chapter in the War of the Ring. Snowblind Studios is in the unique position of drawing inspiration from both the literary and film rights to world of Middle-earth, allowing players to bloody their axes on a wide range of deadly enemies and traverse both established and never-before-seen locations. The result is a journey that is both epic and intimate, familiar yet unexpected.

Key Features:

  • Action Meets RPG - Intense, visceral, and satisfying combat. Rich, layered, and impactful character progression. In War in the North, you get both. Find and equip the best loot, upgrade your hero using a wide range of skills and items, and feel the intense satisfaction of rushing into real-time battles with friends by your side. Fight through the brutal realities of the war on all fronts that were brought to life in the lore. Immerse yourself and make your own mark on Middle-earth.
  • Co-op at its Core - Build your own fellowship of three heroes to confront the growing army in the North. The survival of your group and all of Middle-earth depends upon your uniquely skilled heroes working together. You must fight together or you will die alone, and these high stakes make the experience of playing together both socially engaging and incredibly satisfying. The first time you rescue a friend who has been grabbed by a troll and is desperately yelling for help, you will understand what we mean.
  • An Untold Story - While much attention and focus has been placed on the journey of the One Ring, the assault on Middle-earth hits all corners of the map. War in the North turns our attention towards an integral part of the storyline that is grounded in details within the books and various appendices. This is not someone else’s fight. This is your own effort to forage a way through the dark, dangerous, and unknown landscape, defending all that is yours. This is your war.

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

War in the North is fondly remembered by players as a solid Lord of the Rings action-RPG that shines especially in co-op play, with engaging combat, an interesting parallel story to canon, and satisfying mechanics that hold up reasonably well. The main complaints center on the game's delisting from Steam making it hard to obtain, some frustrating design choices like level caps and inventory limitations, and the fact that certain secrets require multiple human players to unlock, which is now difficult given the game's unavailability.

WB knows that the Legacy Edition is a massive waste of money if this one exists, so they delisted this one. Yeah, that's gonna be a negative review from me, dawg.

Stop with the herd mentality review bombing. As said before this game was a licensed IP and the publisher lost the rights to the licensed IP LOTR and the game was delisted back in 2019 FYI. The OG game was in my library and I didn't ever look at it, till TODAY. Must have gotten it in a Humble Bundle. Anyhoo, I saw the Rerelease was selling very well on XBOX and people are thrilled. I was happy to discover it in the backlog from HECK! It looks great for being 15 years old and, IT DOES SUPPORT CONTOLLERS! The home page says it doesn't support them but that's not correct. I saw those button prompts and smiled. This is a 1st glance at the game on my part but I'm pleasantly surprised.
