Modeled estimate, not a reported figure. How we estimate →
Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Charts
Each storefront's own chart, in its own country — the closest public signal to sales where none is published. A country missing from a list is one we don't collect there, not one where the game doesn't chart.
No United States chart position — it charts only in the markets below.
Latest in each market: best BR #46, worst PL #83 · 2 markets collected
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 15.43/day in the week to Aug 27 → 23.57/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Poland over the last 30 days: the 20 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10.5 places towards #1, and the 2,491 moves with no price cut behind them went 1 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Reviews
Utterly fantastic game, ♥♥♥♥ Warner Bros for their trademarking of a system they never used again.
I loved this game. The original was one of the first games I played on pc and this one is better in almost every way. The nemesis system is so in depth and there are so many unique situations it creates. I beat the game on nemesis difficulty which felt right, and allowed a lot more interaction with enemies, and some welcome challenge. I prefered the character design of Talion from the first game, but other than that, I thought the visual improvements were great. I also really liked most of the characters and their arcs. Criticisms: - Act IV was a little slow, there was not really any plot to follow other than defend your forts, and I wish there was more there - I wish there were a couple more visual changes to recruitment and enemies in Act IV, I wont spoil anything, but the change only seemed to effect your own character and I think it would have been cool to see changes in factions and orcs. - In some quests (Mostly just in Act II) there are weird interactions depending on the order you completed previous quests and unlocked quest-locked abilities. - Fights against the Balrog were disappointing - No way to speed up or skip pit fights

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 24: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

This game is so good. Every issue I had with the previous game in the series has been fixed here: variety has been improved, the Nemesis system has been refined, the mechanics feel smooth and fast, and the progression system is far better thought out Even if you didn't enjoy the first game (which I wouldn't recommend) this is a required purchase on sale for anyone looking for a good action game
el sistema nemesis es una maravilla aunque la historia deja que desear, todo el juego en general es una chulada.
Excellent et triste de savoir que pour une histoire de droits il n'y aura pas de suite au système némésis

It's not very often you can come back to game, almost a decade later, and enjoy it all over again. The voice acting stands out as some of the best I've experienced. The Carnán arc is one I will never cease to enjoy. The combat mechanics are enjoyable at the start, and improve as you unlock more skills. The Nemesis system feels ground-breaking for its time, and I'm wondering why we haven't seen a comparable replay system since. While WB cursed this game with the intended rise of loot-box monetization, and WB's course correction to the backlash (thanks SWBF2) left what you might call a permanent seeping wound to the core progression arc, I still am able to enjoy this game again. From a quest/storyline method, to a kill/capture all the region orcs and commit to every side task/quest method...it's like playing a different game the next round. It's a shame that money-grubbing investors forced WB to curse this franchise (Shadows of Mordor is also extremely good), but I am thankful the servers are still humming along. Thank you, Monolith. Too bad Amazon didn't take a hint.
This game is just a ton of fun. Looks good, fast action, good fighting, love this game.
