Epic tales of old, be it of love, friendship, or glory, are in days bygone. A new War of the Ring is on the horizon, and the fate of Middle-earth now falls into your hands. An irrepressible dark power has been growing, seeping, and bring the war to every inch of Middle-earth. From Minas Tirith to Mount Doom, each faction is desperate to seize control over the One Ring and take dominion over Middle-earth once and for all.
One Ring to Rule Them All.
The War of the Ring has reignited!
- Live Your War of the Ring
The One Ring has resurfaced in the deserted castle of Dol Guldur. It bestows unrivaled power to dominate Middle-earth on its bearer, luring peoples from all factions into a great war.
- Build A Fortified Settlement
Your settlement infrastructure dictates the efficacy of your strategies. Each building functions uniquely, and your power grows with the development of your settlement. Get well prepared for incoming warfares.
- Assemble Formidable Armies
From spearmen, archers, and knights to marvellous creatures and dreadful beasts—all forces must be mustered before the warfare is waged. Victory will be yours if your strategy is sound and your forces are mighty.

3.0.879627
January 3, 2025
- New "World Level" feature: World Level increases along with season progress. After a certain stage of season progress has ended, Commanders with a level lower than the current World Level will be directly promoted to the World Level.
- New type of Fellowship Pin: Introducing a new marking type called "Operational Route." Fellowship administrators can draw operational routes on the strategic map and send them to other Fellowship members.
1.0 was fantasically true to the source material and the good vs evil dynamic on the map with all of the distinct factions gave the game so much flavour and longevity. If we still had 1.0 I would still be paying and playing. 2.0 did away with the LoTR theme in all but name. The lovingly crafted map of middle earth got ripped to shreds in an attempt to emulate other larger games (classic corporate blunder) and all the factions and flavour got churned in together to become a puddle of grey slurry. The decision to scrap all of what players had bought and grinded for over years was about the most predatory and anti consumer practice I’ve seen in gaming. Even if 2.0 was an engaging game, true to the source material still (which it is not), the way Netease handled this change with it’s players is enough for me to never touch one of their games again. In fact I would pay to see that company fail so that the industry can see that these gross, corporate practices do not pay. The devs that created 1.0 have my love and respect but the suits killed this game.
