Also available for the game now are a number of free updates and features, including the Endless Siege, which tasks players with defending a fortress against Sauron, the new Rebellion mode which has you crushing rebel Ologs and Uruks, and an Enhanced Photo Mode that allows players to add new filters, frames, and textures when you’re snapping a photo. Currently, the Middle-earth: Shadow of War Expansion Pass is $39.99 and includes all three DLC, but the Slaughter Tribe Nemesis Expansion is also available individually for $14.99.
