If you want to demo The Lord of the Rings: War in the North, you’ll have to check it out on OnLive, which is hosting an exclusive demo in the US and UK. OnLive users will have an exclusive opportunity to try out the game with all game features enabled, including multiplayer co-op.
The game was already released in North America on the 1st November, but UK residents have to wait until the 25th November for the game’s release. However, for the next three weeks, they’ll have the opportunity to play the demo via OnLive.
“We all wanted to go to Middle-earth when we read /The Lord of the Rings/ novels and watched the movies. It’s a magical place,” said OnLive CEO Steve Perlman. “We’re thrilled OnLive is the first to share that magic with UK gamers with this superbly crafted title, and delighted that UK players can instantly enjoy this title through OnLive on their platform of choice, be it HDTV, PC or Mac.”
The Lord of the Rings: War in the North was released on PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, but no demos for the console versions have been announced yet.
