Guardians of Middle-earth, the MOBA title based on Lords of the Rings, will be released via PSN on December 4 priced £11.99. The Xbox LIVE Arcade version has an unspecified autumn release date.

In addition to the digital release, a retail packaged version will be available for PS3 on December 7 priced £24.99. Included with the retail purchase of the game is pre-paid, discounted access to the digital content offered post-launch, along with PSN vouchers equal in value to the full game, plus the Season Pass of downloadable content. DLC will consist of game maps, one bonus gameplay mode and several additional good and evil characters, some of which will be based on key characters in The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey motion picture.

There’s no indication that the retail release will be available on Xbox.

All DLC will also be available digitally individually or as a Season Pass.
