Return to Middle-earth™ in the only video game based on the epic final chapter of the highly-acclaimed The Lord of the Rings™ movie trilogy. Developed using the same digital assets as the films,The Return of the King™ re-creates in stunning detail the final events of the War of the Ring.

Become the heroes who determine the fate of Middle-earth as you traverse the haunted Paths of the Dead, defend Minas Tirith from the onslaught of thousands of Sauron’s minions, and even play co-op multiplayer with a friend as you march against the impenetrable Black Gates of Mordor. The fate of Middle-earth is in your hands.


  • Nine playable and secret characters including Gandalf, Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, Sam, and Frodo with exclusive voice-over provided by the actual actors from the films. An all-new co-op multiplayer mode will allow players to team up with a companion.
  • Over twelve interactive environments authentically reproduced from the films. Explore the Paths of the Dead, defend Minas Tirith, and battle Sauron’s forces at the Pelennor Fields before final confrontations at the Black Gate and the Crack of Doom.
  • More than just a backdrop to the action, the game environments are interactive, letting you incorporate the various environments into your strategies for both melee and ranged combat. Characters have the ability to jump and swing from ropes, fire catapults, kick boulders, etc.
  • Battle vicious boss monsters including Shelob, the Witch King, and the final showdown with the Dark Lord Sauron.
  • Seamless movie-to-game transitions and never-before-seen exclusive movie footage from the upcoming The Return of the King movie
  • Immersive musical score composed by Academy Award-winner Howard Shore.
