Middle Earth: Shadow of War is bigger and better than its predecessor in almost every conceivable way.

The Awakening the Nightmare DLC and all of the characters available for players to master in Halo Wars 2: Complete Edition make this one of the most robust competitive RTS games on the market and there's really nothing like it on consoles.
