Shadow of War features Ranked Online Mode

July 17, 2019

We’re only a couple of weeks away from the release of the highly anticipated sequel of Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor. Shadow of War will feature many new improvements to the Nemesis System and will have gigantic battles as Orc armies are pitted against each other. The first game did not feature any multiplayer functionality but it seems that the sequel will!

Social Conquest is the latest game mode unveiled my Monolith Studios. Players will be able to create their own Nemesis Fortress that they can fortify and assign Orc leaders. Online players will then be able to take down each others’ Fortresses for loot and glory! There are two modes for players to participate in Social Conquest. Friendly Conquest allows the player to conquer Online Fortresses with no risk to themselves but with a small reward. Ranked Match offers loot boxes and bigger rewards but any allied Orcs that die in battle are lost forever; even the ones from the single player campaign.

Players are ranked are rated by how quickly they can assault a fortress and take down the Overlord. Your rank goes up by quickly taking down several fortresses and higher ranked fortresses are much more difficult. Failure to take down a fortress in a timely manner will result in ranks lost depending on your current rank. Here is a video by Eurogamer that goes further into detail about Social Conquest:
