The Lord of the Rings: War in the North: New Features Revealed at E3

This week, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and Snowblind Studios travelled to the Electronic Entertainment Expo, revealing new areas and features of the 2011 game, The Lord of the Rings: War in the North. Today, a new cut of the trailer "Heroes will Rise" - featuring the just unveiled character of Beleram, the great eagle, is released specifically for The Council, the game's community.

The great eagles have travelled with the Fellowship before, lending their keen eye and stamina in support of the three, the human, elf and dwarf. As the party arrives at the ruins of Fornost, Beleram, the noblest of these creatures, breaks from chains to join the Fellowship, becoming its fourth member. Destroying structures, providing an aerial advantage, and employing his instinctual combat prowess to tear apart those who threaten the fellowship, Beleram accompanies our heroes in their campaign to overthrow Agandaur, Sauron's Chief Lieutenant in the North.

The cooperative gameplay at the heart of The Lord of the Rings: War in the North takes on a new dimension, as any member of the Fellowship may call upon Beleram to join the battle at critical moments. As the war wages on, Beleram's skills and strengths, when strategically used, can preserve the life of the Fellowship and the forwarding of their mission.

Featuring additional content specifically for members of The Council, this new sheds light on the road our heroes travel on their path to saving Middle-earth.
