The Lord of the Rings: War in the North trailer

To save Middle-earth... you must survive. The stealth and cunning of the human, the strong and true arrows of the Elf, the might and strength of the warrior dwarf -- each must rely on the other during this vital mission or face a most certain defeat.

But some creatures dwell alone, subscribing to neither good nor evil. Their only allegiance is to themselves -- an allegiance they fiercely protect. This video reveals a new character in the game emerging from the depths of his cave: Urgost the fire-drake, a fire-breathing dragon.

Urgost is one such magnificent creature and the Fellowship of three must face him; his power of fire is paired with a cunning mind, and his thirst for wealth is matched only by his instinct for self-preservation.
