One day before Future Games Show releases the first images of The Lord of the Rings: Gollum, the game has revealed an official Twitter account. But it doesn’t seem like the developers have much to say yet, as the only tweet posted so far shows the same thing. Gollum synopsis, release information and teaser that we already knew.
Gollum’s game was announced in 2019, promising to show what happened to the character after he acquired the One Ring, but before the events shown in The Hobbit Y The Lord of the rings, both books and movies. Shortly after the announcement, all Tolkien fans, myself included, had a single question in mind: “Why?” The project, unfortunately, sounds like a cash grab, and after the mixed results of The Hobbit adaptation of the trilogy, we have the right to doubt an unexpected journey to expand the universe of The Lord of the rings.
Time passes, we learn to accept things that we do not understand, and a new question arises in our mind: “How?” Two years after the game’s announcement, we still don’t know exactly what to expect from the project, in terms of gameplay. Editor Daedelic has already revealed that this will be a stealth game, Gollum will have no weapons, and direct confrontation is something to be avoided at all costs. All this means The Lord of the Rings: Gollum needs to find some really clever solutions to keep players’ attention, even more so because the Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor the games already had some pretty good stealth mechanics, but they could also counter with a solid combat system.
Daedelic Entertainment is one of the largest publishers and developers of story-based games, with major franchises under its belt, such as dump Y Edna and harvey. But the studio doesn’t have a lot of experience with AAA games. This may lead to a unique insight into Middle-earth, but it’s also daring to promise a game-changing experience to one of the most beloved franchises of all time.
After being delayed, The Lord of the Rings: Gollum It will be released in 2022 for Xbox and PlayStation consoles, Nintendo Switch and PC. We will get a better look at the game at Future Games Show, which will be streamed live on GamesRadar. Youtube Channel Tomorrow, March 25 at 5:45 PM ET. As soon as we know what the heck this game is about, we’ll be sure to report here.
