Middle-earth: Shadow of War expands gameplay in every dimension, including the massive open world, the story, the RPG systems, and personal player stories of the Nemesis System. As with Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, Monolith is committed to delivering the highest quality experience. In order to do this, we have made the difficult decision to move our launch date to ensure that Middle-earth: Shadow of War will deliver on that promise.

We understand that it might be disappointing to have to wait a little longer for the release and are sorry for the delay, but we are working hard to make an amazing game. We’re excited to show more at E3.

**Some territories such as Australia, New Zealand and Japan will have a different release date.

This week on MonolithLive, we're going to continue with what we're making a tradition.

This Friday we'll once again be joined by VP of Creative, Michael de Plater for a quick chat. He's quite enjoyed answering your questions live, so he's decided to make Twitch a regular part of his Friday. But, remember – his time is limited! Get there early. (Don’t say we didn’t warn you.)

After that, we'll be shouting out the fastest among you live on Twitch – and, we'll kick-off our next challenge. Last time, you took up the mantle of the Test of Speed, but this time around you're going to be removing our ability to use Talion's sword, dagger, or bow. Think we're up for it?

See you this Friday. Same Monolith time, same Monolith place: 2 PM Pacific/ 5 PM Eastern, on our Twitch channel.

We’ve been keeping a close eye on you. And, as humble members of your conversation, we’re compelled to join in whenever we can. That’s why this week, our Twitch stream will focus in on the road to War alongside one of our fearless leaders.

To kick things off our VP of Creative, Michael de Plater is going to join us for a quick chat directly with you – the community. His time is limited, so be sure to get there early!

To follow that up, we’re going to spend some time in Shadow of Mordor conquering the greatest challenges it has to offer. As we’ve seen so many of you diving back into your playthroughs, we couldn’t help but get in on the action!
