Warner Bros today released a new video for Middle-earth: Shadow of War featuring Kumail Nanjiani (The Big Sick, Silicon Valley), who portrays The Agonizer. The Agonizer is said to be a spirited yet deadly Orc enemy, who is just one of the numerous personalities players may encounter through the Nemesis System in the upcoming open-world action game.
First revealed at Comic-Con International: San Diego, the video provides a first look at Nanjiani’s Orc character delivering a variety of humorous one-liners that players may come across throughout their game experience. Viewers are also treated to a behind-the-scenes glimpse of Nanjiani’s voice recording session, where he provides additional insight on his preparation for the role.
Middle-earth: Shadow of War will be available on October 10th.
Enjoy!

“The Agonizer” aka Warner Brothers Interactive Entertainment.
As much as I love WB as a movie studio, they p!ss me off endlessly as a game studio. I am, however, hopeful for an open world Superman game. It’s one of my dream games.
Superman 64: The Sequel!
You know, WB Interactive WOULD do that.
Indeed they would. The ’64’ in the title wouldn’t be merely in tribute to the, ahem, ‘classic’ N64 game because it’d also reflect how many pieces of paid DLC they’d be producing for it.
WB Interactive suits would say “Wait, consumers didn’t like Superman64? This is news to us!”
Feed ’em enough micro-transactions until they damned well like it!
I can’t stand that libtard Nanjiani. Ugh.
i just cant see something new , i just hope its not the same as the first one ! and i dont want more story with the same rythem .
