Based on the film series of The Lord of the Rings, LOTR: The Battle for Middle Earth II: The Rise of the Witch-King is a real-time strategy video game developed by Electronic Arts. The Rise of the Witch-King is an expansion to The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle Earth II. The expansion pack allows you to control the rise of evil in Middle Earth.
What is The LOTR: BFME II: The Rise of The Witch-King about?
Even though BFME II and Rise of the Witch-King seem similar, but their main difference is Angmar. Comparing both games, Witch King has new units, maps, hero, and single player mode, all that wasn’t in BFME II.
The Witch-King is the primary lieutenant of the dark lord Sauron, and the leader of the Nazgul, his army’s fearsome black-robed generals. After the epic battle, which was shown at the beginning of the film, The Ring Fellowship, the expansion is set. The Rise of the Witch-King campaign is of the tale that the Witch-King was to undertake between Angmar and Arnor before and during the battle before Sauron returned to Mordor. The campaign offers seven new missions.
The plot of the game is, Angmar’s Witch-King builds a realm out of nothing and gathers an army from the northern people, most of whom are Wolves, Trolls, Orcs, and differing Black Numenoreans; to destroy Arnor’sDunedain kingdom. The epilogue allows the players to place themselves in the footsteps of the good races. As you attempt to create your kingdom, the epic story continues and it ends with the King of Gondor dropping down to stop you. The Rise of the Witch-King expansion pack does justice to the history of The Lord of the Rings, and even improves it by incorporating Sauron’s diabolical schemes seamlessly into it.
