Middle-Earth: Shadow Of War - 7 Leaked Details You're Not Supposed To Know

6. It Centres On Creating Another 'One Ring'

If you were already furious that the uber-powerful elf, Cerebrimbor, actually made the One Ring instead of Sauron, be prepared for even more lore-twisting tomfoolery.

It turns out that following the already OTT events of Shadow of Mordor, main characters Talion and Cerebrimbor decide their best course of action is to create an entirely new 'One Ring' that they can assumedly use to better Sauron... again.

Look, just, this series might exist purely as an excuse to have fun with the lore, okay?

How they do this - or more accurately, why, as combined they're already insanely powerful and have beaten Sauron twice - is up for debate, but mostly it'll serve as an excuse to let you mind-control even more enemies to create even bigger armies, taking over even greater swathes of Mordor in the process.
