Middle-earth: Shadow of War ‘Desolation of Mordor’ Cinematic Reveal

Warner Bros have revealed the cinematic opening for Middle-Earth: Shadow of War – Desolation of Mordor, the game’s final DLC. We’ll take the role of Baranor, Minas Ithil’s guard captain, who’s about to reunite with his long-forgotten brother.

Desolation of Mordor is set in a new location to the east of Mordor: the desert plains of Lithlad. Baranor and his brother Serka are out to rid the region of Orcs – they’ll work together to raise a mercenary army, with the ultimate goal of capturing the fortress of Shindrâm. Interestingly, Baranor is a regular human, so players will not have access to the range of magic powers and upgrades that the main game’s Talion did.
