The Lord of the Rings: War in the North’s launch trailer features giant bird
You remember the huge eagle chaps Gandalf flew around on in Lord of the Rings? No? Remind yourself with the launch trailer for War in the North, which features a brief look at one of the goggle-eyed feathery bastards in between a bunch of magic and shouting. It’s developed by Snowblind, and looks about as “adult” Lord of the Rings games are ever going to be without the elven lady pants coming off.
It’s out on November 25 for PS3, 360 and PC.
