Customer Ratings & Reviews

This game is such a great one for the 24.99 price! It is so much better than the original, and that game was awesome! These are so well done. If you're a fan of The Hobbit- you'll love this one!

This game is so good. The graphics the gameplay and story has been taken to the next level since the first one. It takes you into the world of Lord of the Rings and shows you a whole new story.

The first portion of the game is very similar to the first game, but with improved fighting and story. The second act adds a bunch of awesome features and is very addictive. I love this game.

Took a great game and made it even better (I KNOW, I didn't think it was possible either)!! Graphics, gameplay, flow, story... all incredible. Worth every penny and I'm only 20 hours in.

This is a wonderful followup series to Shadow of War. There is plenty of action, great game play, funny scenes, and at some point you begin to get emotionally invested. Its great.

Very good game, proper sequel, the siege missions are amazing.If you played the first one you will notice a lot of QOL changes but notice how the skills are sort of tiers now so you can change them all out to sort out your play style. Season pass details are looking very good for dlc. Ignore people on loot boxes they are not required in any way they are only there if your to lazy to go get orc captains which going after them is one of the more fun parts in the game imo. Overall I loved it more then the first the nemesis system is amazing making every orc encounter different and always got you guessing.

To put it simple, this game took what was great about the first game, enhanced the graphics and multiplied it by 100. It’s great and fun and the story is outstanding.

Right, so, first go at Shafow of War: I stalk and plan out an attack on an orc captain. Just before I leap from a building to (hopefully) stealth kill him I'm ambushed by another captain. He knocks me off of the building to the feet of the first. I get into a brawl with him until I have to climb back up to the ambusher, who's firing arrows at me. I get him to about 1% and find out he gets enraged by "mortal wounds." He proceeds to one shot me. During the "last chance" QTE the ambusher gets stabbed through the chest by an ally I randomly saved earlier. I then find out that the first captain is enraged by ally deaths. I then basically run around avoiding him looking for arrows until I'm ambushed by TWO MORE G/D CAPTAINS! I somehow managed to kill all three of them. The new nemesis system is borderline insane. Also, I'm hooked.

If you liked the first one then you’ll love this one improvement from its last generation the nemesis system is awesome and a lot of new things to do.

Most people know that Shadow of Mordor is a great single player experience with the addition of its amazing Nemisis System. That being said, they took all that and just packed on to what made the first great. I’m only about 25% of the way through but I’m blown away. And with 4K consoles available and the graphical enhancements provide it’s also extremely beautiful. The negative point to this game I and many would say is the unnecessary loot box addition. I would recommend avoiding them, but it is your money do as you please. Get this game you won’t regret it.

I had the last shadow of war game and it was great. This game goes beyond what I expected for a sequel. I have a lot of fun playing this game.

Whether you're a Lord of the Rings fan or not, this game has a very compelling story and plays beautifully on the latest version of the Xbox

This game is just like the first game with more to do and a more fleshed out story, if you loved the first game I highly recommend it.

Great game, if you like Shadow of Mordor, this just turns the volume up to 11 and then breaks the knob off. Build an army, go to war.

This game is all around great! I love the graphics, gameplay, and story. Its so addicting to play, this a game you must buy not rent!

Loved the first one and love this one even more. The story and gameplay is better than ever. I would recommend this game to everyone.

I have only played for about an hour but with me not being a very hardcore gamer I usually lose interest pretty quickly. So far the gameplay and story have kept me wanting to play more so that is a good sign.

If you liked the first one this title will not disappoint. This game improves on the mechanics and has a pretty decent story.

Excellent game, keeps all the great things from the first game, and adds a few new fun quirks. Nemesis system is better too.

Great game, get if your a fan of the series! Overall it starts slow but the story and overall experience is worth the wait.
