Shadow of mordor story – That all changed at Comic Con with the reveal of the game’s story trailer. Not only do we get to see Sauron’s background and eventual fall, but we also learned that the wraith aiding the hero is none other than Celebrimbor, the forger of the Rings. Throw in some scenes with Gollum, who plays as a sort of sidekick in the game, and we’re definitely all in for a return to the land of Middle-earth.
