: Originally released for Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. It is not currently available on modern digital storefronts (like Steam or Xbox Live) due to licensing expirations.
: Follows the major events of the films, from Helm’s Deep to the Black Gate.
: At launch, the game featured 16-player online matches. Official servers were shut down years ago, but community efforts sometimes keep the PC version alive through fan-made patches.
: Players can occasionally control legendary characters like Gandalf, Aragorn, or Sauron for a limited time to turn the tide of battle.
