Lord of the Rings Rise to War mobile game release date announced

The announcement of the cancellation of the MMO Lord of the Rings disappointed many a few months ago. However, Tolkien's work has not said its last word and will return to find its audience on mobile with The Lord of the Rings: Rise to War. We tell you all about this mobile strategy game that will be released soon. You can also find the link for pre-registration at the end of the article.

LOTR: Rise to War trailer and news

Lord of the Rings: Rise to War is a multiplayer mobile war and strategy game. Each player must raise armies to expand their territory and reach the Ring. On paper, it is above all another real-time strategy game in the style of RoK or Infinity Kingdom but in the universe of Tolkien mixing myths and European legends. The events of the game take place more precisely in the heart of the 3rd Age of Middle-earth. So, no need to look far for your favourite characters, it is also the time ofAragorn or Lord Elrond of Rivendell.

It is also up to the players to choose step by step between good and evil, to form alliances or destructive troop gatherings. In the end, the map divided into squares will only lead the most conquering, the most good or the most awful to the Ring.

If you're interested in the game, The Lord of the Rings: Rise to War is scheduled for release on September 23, 2021. I hope that this collaboration between Warner Bros. Interactive and NetEase game will be worth it, as there is a good chance that the universe and fan service will take precedence over the gameplay and depth of the title.

Update of 13 September 2021: The first developer interview has just been published. This is Devs in the Tavern #01.
