Press release:
GUANGZHOU, China, Sept. 1, 2022.
NetEase Games and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment today announced that the officially licensed mobile strategy game, “The Lord of the Rings: Rise to War“, is now available on the Amazon Appstore.

Players can now download the game on the Amazon Appstore, available in nearly 100 countries, as well as on existing platforms including the App Store, Google Play and Galaxy Store.

Players are invited to join the Great War alongside millions of existing Tacticians in-game and experience this faithful rendition of Middle-earth, based on the iconic trilogy of books by J.R.R. Tolkien and OSCAR®-winning film adaptations directed by Peter Jackson.

Players in The Lord of the Rings: Rise to War, a Geo-strategic Seasonal Wargame, can lead their own armies and strategically expand their territory to claim the One Ring. Throughout their conquest, players will also be able to recruit heroic commanders that have fascinated readers for decades, including the sword-wielding leader Aragorn, the wise Wizard Gandalf, the stouthearted ring-bearer Frodo and many other iconic characters in their quest to save Middle-earth.

Developer NetEase Games has built a deeply realistic 3D rendition of Middle-earth and its characters in The Lord of the Rings: Rise to War, complete with Elves, Dwarves, Hobbits, Orcs and more. As players navigate battles with their favorite The Lord of the Rings character, they will encounter a myriad of Middle-earth’s natural resources which are automatically generated on the map, as well as special buff items that can fortify their armies. The expansive map is rife with detail, containing millions of these resource-rich tiles for players to conquer and occupy.

Players will need to employ both strategy and skill to seize the One Ring and defeat their enemies in The Lord of the Rings: Rise to War. The game features an open and ever-changing battlefield in which all players can achieve victory through their strategy, cooperation, and collective actions with their Fellowship or Warband members.

The Lord of the Rings: Rise to War has released a series of fascinating seasons in the past year including Chaotic Realignment, Rebuilding Glory and others, with each offering a unique gaming experience. The game has also released a variety of popular community activities and drew players to establish their own Fearless Pioneers community, which has inspired many talented fan-created artwork and content.
