Shadow of War Blade of Galadriel Story Expansion Now Available
The Blade of Galadriel story DLC for Middle-Earth: Shadow of War is now out. It puts you in the shoes of Eltariel, Galadriel’s Elven assassin on a mission to hunt down the Nazgul. Pretty difficult mission, that. You’ll also face new Nemesis characters, Orcs that you can add to your ranks in the main story campaign, and more.
It’s finally time for the Blade of Galadriel story expansion DLC to come out for Middle-Earth: Shadow of War. It comes out today, February 6th.
