Xbox One Review - 'Middle-earth: Shadow of War'
Pre-order Middle-earth: Shadow of War Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor was a fantastic game that took elements from the Assassin's Creed and Batman: Arkham series and put it in the universe crafted by J. R. R. Tolkien.

2014's Shadow of Mordor was arguably the sleeper hit of the year for AAA titles when it was released. Everyone knew it was coming, but nobody expected it to be as good as it ended up being.

When Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor released, we all had a hint of scepticism towards it.

Middle-earth: Shadow of War (Xbox One) Review
Middle-earth: Shadow of War has high production values and is a fun open-world slashathon, but it's stretched thin. The storyline starts off promising, but all of the interesting characters get pushed aside to make room for nothing of consequence.

Really do enjoy the combat architecture
Enjoyable, becomes repetitive and overly complex in the domination stages as the game progresses. Really do enjoy the combat architecture, again would be more enjoyable if it didn't remain so repetitive. Overall a good game, wished for DLC after completing the first installment Shadow of Mordor.
