Shelob is indeed the same Shelob from Lord of the Rings, despite appearing here as a human woman instead of a giant spider. The developers made this decision because Shelob’s mother Ungoliant chose to take the form of a spider, and therefore Shelob might also have the ability to take other forms. They also viewed Shelob as a dark parallel to Galadriel.
In an Orc village, it is possible to overhear one Orc say “I’m an assassin,” to which another responds, “We’re all assassins. It’s like a creed.” This is a reference to the Assassin’s Creed series, possible as a nod to how the movement system in the first game, Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, was repeatedly compared to Assassin’s Creed.
