LEGO Lord of the Rings Dev. Diary and Info

LEGO Lord of the Rings Dev. Diary and Info

You shall not...nope. That's the other white-haired fella

Written by SgtDigglesworth on 25 September 12 at 23:55

Are you a hero or a villain? Would you rather be a furry-footed Hobbit or a minion of Mordor? Today, we shall delve into the fire of the volcano and take a deeper look into the darkness that exists in LEGO Lord of the Rings.

LEGOLOTR Sept.25th


Saruman the White
Saruman was the wisest and greatest of the Wizards, but he fell into the evil ways of the Dark Lord. He betrayed Gandalf and bred a large army of monstrous Uruk-hai warriors to rule-over Middle-earth.
In-Game Abilities: Magical staff can lift LEGO objects, provides light in dark places and shoots out bolts of energy.

Gollum
Gollum was corrupted by the One Ring. After finding the Ring, this once-friendly Hobbit became a depraved and withered 500-year-old creature living alone in a deep cave. He liked to feast on fish, but his obsession was the One Ring that he called “my precious.” Driven to madness when he lost the Ring, Gollum would do anything to get it back.
In-Game Abilities: Climb LEGO walls

The Witch-king of Angmar
The Witch-king of Angmar is the leader of the Ringwraiths, who serve the Dark Lord Sauron. He is often seen galloping on a black horse or riding a large flying creature called the Fellbeast. Whether by air or by land, the Witch-king always brings destruction.
In-Game Abilities: Super strength, smash Mordor LEGO

Ringwraiths
They used to be great Kings of Men. But the magic rings given to them by the Dark Lord Sauron made them into his slaves with one mission: to hunt down and return the One Ring to the Dark Lord.
In-Game Abilities: Smash Mordor LEGO

Lurtz (Uruk-hai)
The Uruk-hai were secretly created by Saruman to build his own army of destruction. They are faster and stronger than Orcs, and do not get weakened by the sunlight. Lurtz was one of the first to be bred and led the Uruk-hai in battle.
In-Game Abilities: Super strength

Mordor Orcs
The Mordor Orcs served as the backbone of Saurons army of evil men and beasts. They multiplied in the dark pits of Mordor and went to battle in order to serve the Dark Lord Sauron.

The Balrog
The Balrog is an ancient demon of fire and shadow, bearing whips aflame. Gandalf encounters the infamous Balrog known as Durin’s Bane in an unforgettable duel beneath Moria.

Mountain Trolls
Larger and stronger than their cave-dwelling cousins, the Mountain Trolls of Mordor are a huge, iron-gray-skinned race. These Trolls are better in battle than their smaller kin with their more-dangerous intelligence and a darker nature.

To create even more excitement toward this cute and violent game of fantasy lore, a new developer diary has arisen from the ashes to whet your appetite.



The forces of evil are in full-swing and you can take part in the action within the lore of LEGO Lord of the Rings when it releases this Fall.

I'll either rent this or wait for to become $5 at somewhere. Don't get me wrong LEGO games are great but I just find no replay value in them.

I loved that developer Diary although one little niggle is that I noticed a troll at Helm's Deep and I don't believe they were there during the film. Maybe that's just me picking picky but still, I cannot wait for this game to come out.

Always preferred the characters on the good side of the spectrum, but Lurtz and the Balrog are badass.
