Official Fact Sheet:
One ring to rule them all? Based on New Line Cinema’s epic adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s classic fantasy novels, The Lord of the Rings, The Two Towers video games will integrate cinema and gameplay to deliver an epic interactive experience. In the game, players will be able to relive the most memorable movie moments from the first two films, “The Fellowship of the Ring” and “The Two Towers.”
EA’s first The Lord of the Rings action adventure game will allow players to take control of the motion picture trilogy’s action heroes: Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli, with other members of the Fellowship taking an active role during gameplay. In The Two Towers, players will battle a variety of Orcs and square off against vicious boss monsters including the Cave Troll and Saruman. A tactical gameplay system will encourage players to react quickly and be strategic with their selection of characters, weaponry and combat moves.
Middle Earth comes to life in spectacular detail. Set in over 16 mission locations, each environment will have a close visual correlation to that seen in the first two films. As a backdrop to the action, the game will feature Howard Shore’s Academy Award-winning musical score.
