Guardians of Middle-earth delivers an authentic multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game set in Middle-earth and crafted specifically for console systems. Gamers team up as the most powerful heroes from the greatest fantasy epic of all time, bringing up to 10 players together in strategic five versus five competitive multiplayer battle arenas in the epic setting of Middle-earth.

Beregond is ready to stand for Gondor and prove his quality.

The next two characters to be featured in the upcoming one to ten player MOBA title Guardians of Middle-Earth have been revealed and we here at Blistered Thumbs have the information you need to know about these additions to the Lord of the Rings inspired game. Just as last time, a champion of each side in the battle for the Middle-Earth has been chosen for the giving of details. On the side of the Free People, a solider of Gondor by the name of Beregrond takes center stage. A minor character in the overall saga, Beregrond will be most familiar to readers of the novels as the solider who along with his son Bergil served as a guide for Pippin during his initial time in Minas Tirith. Felgrom meanwhile is a deranged Goblin sapper who frightens even his own subordinates fear and (as far as I know at least) is an original creation made especially for GoME. More in-depth details of these two characters follow below along with a trailer highlighting them in action.

Bereond Character Bio

Bio:
A soldier of Gondor, Beregond is a skilled warrior trained from an early age to protect his homeland from its enemies without. His bravery in years of service to the Stewards have earned him a place in the elite Guard of the Citidel in Minas Tirith, the capital itself. While his fierceness in battle is renowned by his comrades in arms, Beregond also shows kindness and honor to friends of Gondor. In the face of great terror and peril, Beregond can be counted on to call forth the courage of his people, stand firm, and turn aside the enemies of the city he has sworn to protect.

Beregond Gameplay Abilities:
Turning of the Tide: Deals Damage while removing Controlling Effects
Noble Sacrifice: Taunts Enemy Guardians and Creatures
Shield of Gondor: Shield that absorbs Damage and increased Movement Speed
Guard of the Citadel: Area attack with Damage and Silence

Beregond’s Class:
Warrior

Felgrom Character Bio

Bio:
A ticking timebomb – always moving, always running – Felgrom is as freakishly insane as he is deadly. Proficient in the use of many types of explosives, Felgrom and his kin are the vanguard of a company of soldiers of Mordor, accustomed to instilling fear in their opponents. They all delight in the prospect of their own demise, knowing that the damage they inflict on the enemies of the Dark Lord is worth the price of their own insignificant lives. Felgrom in particular is eager to leap into a crowd of enemies and engulf them in flames, allowing the madness that consumes him to destroy them as well.

Felgrom Gameplay Abilities:
Lob: Area ranged attack with Damage and Stun
Burn: Trades Damage to Enemies for loss of Health
Trap: Explosive trap with Damage and Knockup
Ka-boom: Sacrifices self to destroy Enemies

Felgrom’s Class:
Tactician

Guardians of Middle-Earth will arrive worldwide on December 4 for PS3 via PSN at the cost of $14.99/£11.99 with a XBLA release set to follow at an as yet to be specified later date. Interestingly enough, a full physical retail release of the game for PS3 will also arrive at the same but for the higher price of $29.99/£24.99 owing to inclusion of a voucher for a season pass for the game along with access to the game’s planned DLC which include maps and characters based on the upcoming trilogy of films based on The Hobbit and more.
