Lord of the Rings: Gollum Video Game In The Works

 

German video game developer Daedalic Entertainment unveiled its upcoming title, Lord of the Rings: Gollum. While waiting for it to be released, you can spend some time on 겜블시티 가입코드.

The action-adventure game will follow the years of the popular J.R.R. Tolkien character after he acquired the One Ring but before the events of The Lord of the Rings novels and films.

 

 

“You already have that big conflict in the character, two voices talking to you continuously, which means there is a good reason there are decisions to make in the game: the Smeagol decisions or the Gollum decision,” Carsten Fichtelmann, CEO and co-founder of Daedalic Entertainment

 

Not much else is known about the game at this time, it will be set in the worlds of the books though,  the actual story of the game takes place in the time between when he first found the ring and when Bilbo ended up taking it from him.

 

“We have the story that we all know from the book, but everything that happens to him before he appears in the book are the main things we will see in our game, We will tell the story before he first appears in the books.” Carsten Fichtelmann, CEO and co-founder of Daedalic Entertainment

 

Daedalic partnered with Middle-earth Enterprises to develop and publish the new game, which is slated for release in 2021 on PC and “all relevant console platforms at that time.”

Gollum is the first title being developed in the new partnership between Daedalic and Middle-earth, but plans for further games in the future are in the works.

 

The 2021 release date for Gollum coincides with Amazon’s planned premiere date for its $1 billion Lord of the Rings television series that is currently in production.

J.R.R. Tolkien is one of the most beloved and respected authors of all time.

Tolkien is a new biopic from Fox Searchlight staring Nicholas Hoult (X-Men: First Class, Warm Bodies) as the titular author. The first teaser trailer has arrived, and it looks like it will be , mixing the biographical elements of his life with flashes to the fantasy worlds that the author seemingly imagined himself in.

Lily Collins also stars in Tolkien as Edith Bratt, who would eventually become the author’s wife and muse. Edith was famously the inspiration for Tolkien’s characters Lúthien Tinúviel and Arwen Evenstar, both characters of Middle-earth.
