What is Middle-earth: Shadow of War about?

The world of men is ending. In fires of Mount Doom, a ranger, and wraith bound together in death. Crafted the one thing that could challenge Sauron, a Ring of Power. But power can blind those who seek it, The Great Deceiver has returned to Middle-Earth, to rebuild his armies. To rule all. The corruption will be contained no longer. The war for Mordor begins.
