What is written in The New Ring? Shadow of War
I was just wondering, does anyone know what is written in the "new ring" on Shadow of War?

When you take a closer look at the pictures, the words are quite different from the ones found in the "one ring" of Sauron.

I renounce the blessed realm
To redeem the land of shadow
And bind the walls of Arda
In place of the dark lord
You shall have light undiminished
All shall fear me and rejoice

It's a translation from the Ithildin of the first game. According to a dev post in the now defunct WB forums they confirmed that the new ring is supposed to read thus. However...seemingly due to a mistake in the translation during the development the actual inscription on the ring in the game and the trailers only looks to be gibberish.

Despite this, Sindarin enthusiasts originally were able to reverse engineer the keystrokes used to type in order to guess what was the intended text.

The full text of the Ithildin reads:

I am The Bright Lord of Mordor.
The silver hand that drives back the darkness,
Reaching through the fog of night,
To avenge those long betrayed.
Arise from fields of death,
And march forth from the shadow,
Through the purifying flames of war,
You who were once eldar shall be reforged.
Beneath my hammer,
The Bringer of Gifts, the Betrayer shall be un-made,
I renounce the Blessed Realm.
To redeem the Land of Shadow.
And bind the walls of Arda,
In place of the Dark Lord,
You shall have light undiminished,
All shall fear me and rejoice.
