Troy Baker Reprises Role as Talion in Middle-earth: Shadow of War

Troy Baker is becoming – if he not already is – a legend in the gaming industry for performing a number of key roles in big budget, AAA video games. It comes as no surprise, therefore, that he will be reprising his role as Talion in the new Middle Earth title, Shadow of War. If you aren’t familiar with Troy Baker you should be, and having him reprise his role again is only another sign that Shadow of War will be equally as good, if not better, than its predecessor.

From Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment,

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment today announced that Troy Baker is reprising his role as Talion in Middle-earth: Shadow of War, the upcoming open-world action-adventure game. Baker has also taken on extended duties as the game’s Performance Capture Director, where his first-hand experience as an actor is now being utilized with other characters, helping to ensure that each performance fits cohesively within the original narrative in Middle-earth: Shadow of War.

Shadow of War is set between the events of Bilbo Baggins journey in the Hobbit, and Frodo’s journey in the Lord of the Rings trilogy. This new installment brings a ton of new features to the emerging franchise, which has earned numerous honours since its initial release.

Middle-earth: Shadow of War will be available for Xbox One, Project Scorpio, Windows 10 PC (Windows Store and Steam), PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 4 Pro beginning October 10, 2017.
