New Batch of Videos for LOTR: War in the North Introduces Characters

Caught up in the crossfire between the slew of current video game releases is the fact that Lord of the Rings: War in the North is shipping on November 1 for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC, and it marks the first major title for the LOTR franchise in some time.

Warner Bros. Interactive and Snowblind Studios aren’t about to let fans forget about it though, as they’ve released a new set of videos for the upcoming action RPG. Each of the videos for game’s human, elven, dwarven and  characters show off the distinct abilities and play styles of each race as well as the skill tree progression system. There’s also plenty of limb-severing gameplay shown to prove the game lives up to its “M” rating. Devotees of Middle-Earth will definitely want to give these a look.
