Some additional info from Wikipedia: “The family of Talion, a ranger of Gondor responsible for guarding the Black Gate of Mordor, is killed by Sauron’s armies, but Talion (voiced and motion captured by Troy Baker) is revived with “wraith-like abilities” and heads into Mordor to exact his revenge. Mordor is not yet a barren wasteland in this story.”
