The books don’t go into much detail about what Gollum does during his journey to reclaim the ring, although we know he meets Shelob at one point, is captured in Mordor and tortured into revealing who Bilbo Baggins is and where the ring might be. So expect something that doesn’t break the story or narrative of the original work, but may add a few things that aren’t discussed directly in The Lord of the Rings.Ĭarsten Fichtelmann, CEO and co-founder of Daedalic, said the new game will “tell Gollum’s story from a perspective never seen before, in any storytelling medium, all the while staying true to the legendary books of J.R.R. Tolkien, and will follow Gollum’s path through those books, but it “will also explore new events and details” from that journey. The Lord of the Rings – Gollum will be based on the books by J.R.R.
The game will be released on Xbox X/S and Xbox One, PS4 and PS5, PC, and Switch next year.Daedalic Entertainment has announced that it’s working on a new Lord of the Rings action-adventure game that will be released in 2021 for PC and “all relevant console platforms at that time.” The game will be called The Lord of the Rings – Gollum, and will focus on that titular character. The Lord of the Rings: Gollum is a cinematic stealth-action-adventure, it mixes stealth and parkour gameplay and really leverages Deadelic’s expertise in crafting engaging stories. We think we have a unique approach, and if we do this game right I don’t think there’ll be much space for anyone doing a Gollum game, because we’ve already done it.” In the video, Daedalic says:īy looking at events from his angle, players will experience Middle-earth through the eyes and twisted mind of one of the most iconic characters of all time. We have these two characters talking to him constantly. The CEO of Daedalic previously said that their ambition to stick more closely to the book was the reason why they were chosen to make the game.Ĭarsten Fichtelmann, CEO of Daedalic Entertainment, said that “Conflict is important for storytellers and that’s already in the character. The video style of the game is completely separate and independent from other game and film adaptations (including the forthcoming Amazon series), and the developers say they aim to stick faithfully to the book whilst showing never-before-seen parts of Middle-earth. The game, announced in 2019 and due to be released in the latter half of 2022, is being developed by Daedalic Entertainment and is an adventure game where the player traverses Middle-earth, as seen from the perspective of Gollum. The new video of The Lord of the Rings: Gollum shows Gandalf, Thranduil, the Mouth of Sauron, as well as locations such as the Mirkwood and the Mines of Moria.
