EA adaptation of The Two Towers, German release. Beat 'em up slimmer than Return of the King but already very effective, simple combat staged around the film's big battles. Faithful art direction and instant fun. A strong opener for EA's run.

Description
Aragorn and allies battle Sauron's forces in this EA Games GameCube The Two Towers. Published by EA Games, released in Europe in November 2002. Film-adapted action-adventure with Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli, Rohan levels and Helm's Deep battles.
Lord of the Rings The Two Towers PAL is the European edition of EA's game, the first entry of the trilogy on GameCube. Collector value comes from the game's founding position in the EA LotR sub-series.
Is Lord of the Rings, The - The Two Towers still worth playing in 2026?
The first video game entry in the Peter Jackson trilogy, The Two Towers delivers highly scripted single player action through the film's iconic battles, from Helm's Deep to the mines of Moria. The combat system with progressive combos rewards mastery and enemy reading. The cinematic soundtrack and the original actors lending their voices reinforce the immersion. Shorter than The Return of the King and solo only, the title keeps a rare evocative power for fans of the trilogy and worth a visit.
