The Lord of the Rings: Rise to War is an official mobile game based on the books by Tolkien and the Oscar winning films by Peter Jackson. It is described as a geostrategic seasonal wargame, and you can pre-register now.
The game takes place during the events of the movies and sees you building a fortified settlement. You must extend your reach, form bonds of camaraderie, and face the enemy in massive battles.
You don’t have to play on all of these hobbits, however. You can choose to ally with Sauron and try to take control of Middle-earth for the bad guys.
You will join with other players in trying to capture tiles on the game world map, gaining and losing ground as you win and lose battles. We all know what kind of game it is, right?
If you pre-register, you’ll get in-game goodies when the game officially launches. Including, but not limited to, a portrait of Bilbo Baggins. What’s… cool?
