Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and Monolith Productions today released the newest DLC character, powerful spider Unglob, and a three-lane Mirkwood map skin for Guardians of Middle-earth. Gamers can download and play as Unglob on Xbox LIVE Arcade and PlayStation Network.
Unglob
Class: Striker
Similar to the powerful spider Shelob, Unglob is a monstrous creature who broke away from other members of Ungoliant's brood to inhabit Mirkwood. She’s on a path to become an immensely powerful spider, perhaps even more so than Shelob, and is fiercely aggressive by nature. Relying on brute strength and speed to take down foes, Unglob’s dependence on stealth is nonexistent.
Unglob’s Gameplay Abilities:- Stick: Damages, blinds and pulls enemies closer
- Hunt: Increases own movement speed, clears controlling affect and is briefly invulnerable
- Drain: Persistent area that slows and damages
- Bite: Lifesteal, damages and stuns enemy
In addition, gamers can play on the three-lane map with the new Mirkwood map skin, which lands players into the dark and foreboding forest.
WBIE and Monolith also released new character art, bio, ability details and a new video about playing as Unglob, whose abilities include a bite, which stuns and damages enemies.
