Delisting
The Lord of the Rings: War in the North was delisted from Xbox 360 in December of 2018 according to reporting from TrueAchievements.com. On Steam its price was set to $0.00 on February 13th, 2019 making it unavailable to buy. The PlayStation 3 version was likely delisted between these two dates. Another Lord of the Rings title from Warner Bros., Guardians of Middle-Earth, was also delisted in late 2018. Both titles were most likely delisted due to expired licensing of the Lord of the Rings properties from Middle-earth Enterprises.
About the Game
“Battle in the war-torn lands of Northern Middle-earth on a quest that Gandalf himself deemed imperative to the success of the One Ring’s journey toward Mordor. Form your own Fellowship and explore previously unseen lands, storylines and characters as you work together in expansive co-op gameplay. Upgrade your weapons and customize your character as you develop your skills and special abilities. As you’re faced with the mature and brutal reality of J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth, you must fight together to defeat Sauron’s forces or die alone.
