Electronic Arts announced today that the highly anticipated PC game, The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-earth II will also make its way exclusively to the Xbox 360 console.  The high-definition title will be the first game in the series that will be playable over Xbox LIVE. Gamers can challenge friends online and engage in real-time battles.

From the release: "The game boasts a new and intuitive console-specific control scheme that will allow novice players to enjoy the game's signature strategy gameplay while giving expert players the flexibility needed to engage in a deeply complex strategy experience. Players will directly control hundreds of units in an attempt to defeat enemy armies, conquer new lands, and seal the fate of Middle-earth."
