If you can’t wait to return to Mordor then you’ll be pleased to learn that a mobile spin-off game has been announced and should help tide you over until the full game is released. The game will allow you to battle the forces of Sauron using heroes from the main game and some familiar faces from the Lord of the Rings trilogy such as Boromir and Gimli. A new trailer has been released which you can check out below:

If you want to get your hands on the mobile game as quickly as possible then you can pre-register for the game on its official site.
