War in the North Gets a Second Chance After Skyrim Clash, Ex-WB Boss Says
Former Warner Bros. Games leader Christian Allen says The Lord of the Rings: War in the North didn’t get a fair shake when it launched in 2011 alongside Skyrim, suffering from weak marketing and release timing; Aspyr’s Legacy Edition re-release this week is aimed at giving the title a proper second chance, with Allen noting that quarterly revenue incentives may have constrained executives’ release-date decisions.
