As expected, Major Nelson has released a new episode in the ongoing This Week On Xbox series, which provides us with a first look at Xbox gameplay for the new game sequel Middle-Earth: Shadow of War. This highly anticipated game continues the story from its predecessor, Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor, and promises to deliver an even more immersive and expansive experience.
Gameplay and Features
Last week, developers Monolith also revealed a gameplay trailer to showcase the content on the PlayStation 4, allowing you to enjoy a little of the action to whet your appetite ahead of the game’s launch later this year during August 2017. You can check out the trailer here. The trailer highlights the enhanced Nemesis System, which now extends to the entire world where players can create new personal stories with their followers and enemies.
Middle-earth: Shadow of War is a sprawling action-RPG epic that will be available to play on PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4. The game builds upon the innovative Nemesis System introduced in Shadow of Mordor, allowing players to experience a dynamic world where every character remembers their interactions with the player, leading to unique and personalized gameplay experiences. The game also introduces new mechanics such as fortress assaults, where players can lead their own army to conquer strongholds and expand their influence across Mordor.
Additional Game Releases and Features
In addition to the exciting news about Middle-earth: Shadow of War, Major Nelson also discusses the release of Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands. This tactical shooter game offers a vast open world where players can team up in co-op mode to take down a dangerous drug cartel in Bolivia. The game emphasizes strategic planning and teamwork, providing a different kind of immersive experience compared to the fantasy world of Middle-earth.
Moreover, Major Nelson highlights some great new Forza Horizon 3 cars. Forza Horizon 3 continues to be a favorite among racing game enthusiasts, offering a diverse range of cars and stunning Australian landscapes to explore. The new car pack includes a variety of high-performance vehicles, adding more excitement and options for players to enjoy.
Also, don’t forget that the interactive version of This Week on Xbox is available from the Community section of the New Xbox One Experience dashboard in Canada, the UK, and the US. This interactive version allows viewers to engage with the content more dynamically, providing a more enriched viewing experience.
The anticipation for Middle-earth: Shadow of War is building, and with the release of these gameplay trailers and insights from Major Nelson, fans have a lot to look forward to. The game promises to deliver a rich and engaging experience, with its expanded Nemesis System and new gameplay mechanics. Whether you’re a fan of action-RPGs, tactical shooters, or racing games, there’s something exciting on the horizon for everyone.
