The Lord of the Rings: Gollum Hit With Delay

The Lord of the Rings: Gollum Hit With Delay

, , , 8

The Rings Of Power might be hot stuff soon, but they’ll be passe once Sauron forges One Ring To Rule Them All. Everyone’s going to be after it, but only one man, the one they call Smeagol, is going to obtain it. And then it’s gonna turn him into a bug-eyed, nearly naked troll thing with a magic addiction. Being Gollum wouldn’t be a pleasant experience, but you can step into the role from a safe distance when The Lord of the Rings: Gollum is released for modern consoles and the PC. It will be based on the books, not the movies, and take you through Gollum’s journey. Smeagol is still in there somewhere, though, and will take control of Gollum’s body at some points, so you’ll essentially be controlling two characters. The Gollum game was announced in 2019 and targeted for a 2021 release date. But very few games come out exactly when they’re supposed to, so The Lord of the Rings: Gollum has had quite a few delays.

The lisping man-monster made famous by Tolkien’s novels and Jackson’s movies is getting his own game. It’s mainly an action adventure through Middle Earth, but as far as motivation is concerned, Gollum cares about one thing and one thing only — his preciousssssss. With a serious magic addiction that’s corrupted him to his core, he’ll do anything to get his hands on the One Ring, and now you can help him almost reach his goal before he plummets into lava. This time, though, since you’re the one deciding what Gollum does, you also decide whether he recovers the bit of humanity he has left or if his dark side completely takes over. Will you take the traditional route or

Daedalic Entertainment has announced a partnership with Middle-earth Enterprises to develop The Lord of the Rings: Gollum. It will be produced in-house with Daedelic’s own team, with a targeted 2021 release date on PC and whatever consoles we have by then. Work has only just begun on the title and there are no screenshots or even concept sketches to speak of. All we have is the basic concept. In this action adventure, you’ll follow Gollum’s journey from healthy upstanding Middle Earth citizen to slimy emaciated One Ring junkie. “With their focus on characters and story, enhanced by rich and evocative artwork, Daedalic is committed to building games for readers who become gamers,” says Fredrica Drotos, Brand Officer for Middle-earth Enterprises. “We eagerly anticipate the release of Daedalic’s narrative-driven adventure gameplay, which is uniquely matched to the complex, deeply-nuanced world of Middle-earth.” “The Lord of the Rings is one of the most epic and renowned stories of all time – it’s an honour for us to have the opportunity to work
