The expansion pass consists of four DLC packs, two of which add new story missions and two that introduce new enemy tribes to the game’s Nemesis System. The first two expansions, which feature the Slaughter Tribe and Outlaw Tribe, will release in November and December respectively, while the Blade of Galadriel and Desolation of Mordor story expansions have February and May launch windows.
For those who don’t own the expansion pass or the Gold Edition of the game, each of the four expansions will be available to purchase separately for £11.99, with the exception of the Desolation of Mordor DLC, which will cost £15.99.
 
Periodic free updates will be available to all players, such as the one arriving alongside next month’s Slaughter Tribe DLC that introduces endless Shadow Wars.
 
Here’s the full list of each expansion’s contents:
