LOTR: Conquest Looking to Conquer Co-Op

Nicholas "bapenguin" Puleo May 28th, 2008 at 12:55 PM

It's been a few years since the "great milking" of the Lord of the Rings franchise.  In fact, I believe it's been well over a year since the last LOTR game was release, which would have been LOTR: Online

Now Pandemic, makers of Star Wars: Battlefront, look to bring Frodo and friends back for an epic battle game of their own.  The new game called Lord of the Rings: Conquest will feature two campaign modes (good and evil) as well as full co-op play (online or splitscreen) for up to 4 players through the campaigns.  

On top of that the game promises to hit all the major battles of the movies, as well as some never before scene scenarios.  But you won't just be playing one of the game's four classes (Warrior, Scout, Mage, Archer), instead Pandemic has included plenty of "vehicles" like: horses, wargs, playable trolls and ents, catapults, siege towers and battering rams.

All in all this looks to be an interesting title, and the developers promise it won't just be Battlefront 2 in a fantasy skin.  Look for the game on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC this fall.

Certainly looks interesting! I love co-op, and often wonder why it's just shooters that get the co-op treatment. Let's hope it works out, and who knows, maybe it'll be a whole new generation of "Warrior need food BADLY!"
