If you’re a fan of movies, such as Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies or the Alien franchise for example, who also happens to play a lot of video games, then one day later this year will be particularly exciting for you.

It was recently announced that the impressive looking new survival horror game Alien: Isolation would be released on October 7th. Now comes word that the latest Lord of the Rings and Hobbit-related video game, titled Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, will also be released on the 7th of October. I sense many personal and sick days being taken.

In addition to announcing a release date, a new story trailer has also been released for Shadow of Mordor. You can see that, as well as a gameplay demo for the game below.
