Middle Earth Shadow Of Mordor Gameplay, Release Date And Review: Middle Earth Shadow Of Mordor Provides A Clever Road Map For The Next Generation Of Triple-A Games

We have the latest for you on the gameplay, release date and review of Middle Earth: Shadow Of Mordor. Warner Bros. digital Entertainment are the publishers of Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor, the game which was Monolith Productions have developed. In its official statement release it states; Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor provides a clever road map for the next generation of triple-A games more than anything that has come previously. But is there any truth to that?

In regards to that statement, it's quite a contrast as the game has no quality features that would make it all that unique. Its gameplay revealed that Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor has borrowed liberally from the established action-adventure hits of the last gen" the Stealth and platforming of Ubisoft's Assassins creed and the heavy combat experienced in Warner Bros. own game, Batman.

But if we look past these striking similarities, the game engages one into a whole new territory of fantasy that the Modern narrative action game has to offer. Monolith Productions put in a lot of efforts to develop an open world that will actually feel like it lives, breathes, morphs and moves with or without your own actions. It's a surprising effort that successfully blends a strong plot and clear goals with the delightfully unpredictable elements of dynamic generated content. The game has captured the actions present in other games and turned it into a better and more interesting game.

In the game, Talion is the main character who acts as the ranger guarding the Black Gate which separates land of Mordor from the rest of Middle Earth. The game has a setting that coincides with J. R. R. Tolkien's 'The Hobbit' and The Lord of the Rings Trilogy which makes Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor have a dramatic start.

In the start of the game, Talion's outpost is over-run by Orcs which leads to his family alongside all under his command being slaughtered. Talion is also killed in this invasion but he is resurrected and finds himself mysteriously tied to a powerful and ancient wraith. In the start Talion will start off as a generic, revenge driven video game protagonist but as the game proceeds he exhibits a more Nuanced and interesting personality.  

The game has been designed to be compatible with Microsoft's Xbox One and 360, Sony Corp.'s PS3 and PS4 and also the Windows platform. The game is set for launch and release on October 7th 2014.
