Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment has released a frankly bizarre and rather disconcerting new trailer for Middle-earth: Shadow of War that showcases the Marauder tribe. The Marauders are a faction of Orcs who specialise in pillaging, conquering, feasting and toasting their Dark Lord with a mug of grog. They also, for some inexplicable reason, dance to hip-hop, badly.
In Shadow of War, Orcs are now affiliated with certain tribes (Marauder being one of them), and their character traits can in turn extend their influence depending on the favour received from the tribe Overlords. These Overlords rule fortresses throughout the game’s open world. Shadow of War expands on the Nemesis system from the first game by giving each Orc a personality and unique characteristics in line with the tribe he’s in.
