Lord of the Rings: War in the North – Legacy Edition – What’s in the box?

Let’s give them something they’ll be Tolkien about…


The road goes ever on and on… but this particular road leads straight to The Lord of the Rings: War in the North™ – Legacy Edition.

If you find yourself wavering over which edition to secure during this limited pre-order window, fear not. We would not presume to give you counsel, saying do this or do that… but we can reveal the treasures awaiting you in each edition.

So, gather your fellowship, pack a little lembas for the journey, and let’s see what lies within.

Standard Edition

Pre-orders for The Lord of the Rings: War in the North™ – Legacy Edition are now open for PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2, and Xbox, with both Standard and Deluxe Editions available.

Those who choose the Standard Edition will receive the game case and disc or game card, depending on platform, housed within an O-Ring slipcover.

But there’s something else tucked inside.

You’ll also receive an eight-page booklet titled “A Wayfinder’s Ledger.” Within its pages are riddles from the game, along with the official riddles for the “Riddles in the Dark” activation.

After all, what kind of journey through Middle-earth would it be without a few riddles along the way?

Deluxe Edition

For those who wish to venture a little deeper into Middle-earth, there is the Deluxe Edition.

Everything included in the Standard Edition makes the journey here, but it all arrives housed within a Deluxe Edition Box filled with additional collectibles worthy of your own personal hoard.

Inside, you will discover:

  • A SteelCase
  • A full-color cloth map
  • A Wayfinder’s Ledger
  • A mysterious weathered letter, carefully folded and closed with a wax seal

And that letter has quite a tale behind it.

It was penned especially for Deluxe Edition owners by Jed Brophy, whose long history with Middle-earth includes appearances in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Hobbit trilogy, and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.

What does his message say?

Well… some things are better discovered when the seal is broken.

Choose Your Fellowship

Whether you choose the Standard Edition or decide the Deluxe Edition is your precious, The Lord of the Rings: War in the North™ – Legacy Edition offers fans a new reason to journey back to the northern reaches of Middle-earth.

But remember: this is a limited pre-order window.

There may come a day when the pre-order period closes.

But it is not this day.
