We have just played the very beginning of Middle-earth: Shadow of War on PC and we have a couple of videos to share with you now. The game seems to be pretty demanding as our GTX 1080 cannot hold a steady 60 fps in 1440p when maxed out. Simply lowering the shadows to high instead of ultra seems to do the trick in such a resolution though. The first video was recorded in 1080p with the game fully maxed out as the game was also running in 1080p. The second video was recorded in 1080p while the game's resolution was pushed to 1440p with high shadows only. Take a look and let us know what you think. We'll also have some PS4 Pro footage sometime tomorrow.

I am looking forward to the PC build looks solid, can't wait to play it my self tomorrow(aka tonight late night)!
The action gameplay though, much like the first, is probably quite satisfying. No doubt not a bad game, but not a 60$ buy at launch title.
You guys might want to check it out again if you have not:

It makes a huge difference.
Thanks!
I was heavily impressed with the graphics of the Star Wars Battlefront 2 game beta, as compared to this game. SWBF2 looks superb. SOW is just a minor upgrade over the first game. SWBF2 is phenomenal looking, with its use of the Frostbite engine. Will be interesting to see what I play most of in the coming months with SWBF2 having a true SP campaign now.
Thumbs Up to the developers of Shadows of War.
