LOTR: War in the North releasing Nov. 4

Warner Bros. Interactive has announced that their three player co-op third-person action game, The Lord of the Rings: War in the North, will be coming out on November 4, putting it in direct competition with Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception.

The game will also be competing with other heavyweights such as The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Battlefield 3, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, and Assassin’s Creed Revelations.

The game will also have one of the most extravagant collector’s editions ever, coming in a life size quiver (with two arrows in it, no less).

The game is one of the most brutal titles based on J.R.R. Tolkein’s famous literary work, the first LOTR game to ever to earn itself a Mature rating. A human, a dwarf and an elf wander through the frozen North battling, slicing, and decapitating the minions of Sauron. Each protagonist has a special, unique set of skills, and co-operation is a must to survive the game, which can get pretty difficult.

Keep an eye out for this title, which will be released on PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
