About the Game

The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King is a hack and slash action game developed by EA Redwood Shores and published by Electronic Arts in 2003, released alongside the final film of Peter Jackson’s trilogy.

It splits the story into three paths. Gandalf’s path runs from Helm’s Deep to Isengard and Minas Tirith; Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli take the Paths of the Dead; and Frodo and Sam head for Cirith Ungol and Mount Doom. Experience earned in each level buys new combos and upgrades, and most levels can be played by two players together.
