Hello Total War-players of Middle-earth!
Since the second of our menu theme songs is now released as a preview, it felt proper to make an article out of the topic.
The composers Axl Rosenberg and Magnus H. Tellman (links below) have been friendly and given us the opportunity to utilize their creations to set the mood straight and set the blood pumping, as the player get ready to dive into the War of the Last Alliance.
Our sincere gratitude to them for this, and we encourage you to check out their other music avilable on youtube.
Both videos show screen shots: the first from both TATW and DCI, the latter only DCI.
In both cases the content derive from different stages of development, while the new video have most up to date images, both previously published and not previously published content.
Our first menu theme song is from Altiāre by Axl Rosenberg, it has been previewed for quite some time and many heard it, yet since it goes hand in hand with the new addition we provide it here too, for easy access to the in order ingame experience:

Our second, and brand new in public, menu theme song is from Deus Naaaru by Magnus H. Tellman:

Best regards

Absolutely epic!
Glad you like it :)
Damn the 1st theme is epic and fit so well with the Last Alliance.
2nd isn't bad too, but you know.. I've just fallen in love with the first one..
Aye, it's a mighty tune and our main theme, can't imagine to start off the War of the Last Alliance without it!
The new one was carefully chosen after a long time, it's a perfect follow up, calmer, a bit more solemn, but with no less inner energy. When together in the menu, while choosing faction and reading in on the lore descriptions, they put you, and keep you, in exactly right state of mind :)
