Players have been waiting for it for quite a long time, but The Lord of the Rings : Gollum finally received a new launch window. Initially, in 2019, the game was announced as one of the first to appear on next-gen consoles. Plans thwarted countless delays . The topic temporarily rested on the second half of 2022 , and finally the premiere was postponed to an unspecified date. Since then, the developers from Daedalic Entertainment have not revealed anything new about the project, which started to raise doubts. Fortunately, the period of silence is over, and now we have new information about the release date.
Mentioned in a new financial report from publisher Nacon, Gollum is expected to be released in the first half of the 2023-2024 fiscal year. This means that the game is to be released between April 1 and September 30. Considering that there is not much time left before the start of this window, we can expect more news from Daedalic, and very soon.
Anyway, The Lord of the Rings: Gollum will go to PlayStation, Xbox and computers. A version for Nintendo Switch is also in the works, but the plans are to release it some time after the others.
Fast and agile, cunning and cunning. Driven by the desire to hold back what he has lost, Gollum is one of the most fascinating characters in the Lord of the Rings universe . He’s seen things others can’t, imagine he’s experienced things others dare not mention. Torn by a split personality, he can be cruel and wicked like Gollum, but gregarious and cautious like Sméagol. While central to J. R. R. Tolkien’s story, many elements of Gollum’s quest have yet to be told in detail. In The Lord of the Rings: Gollumyou can live this story. From his days as a slave under the Dark Tower to his stay with the elves of Mirkwood. Use stealth, agility and cunning to survive and face what lies ahead. Climb, jump and grab to avoid dangers or take advantageous positions. While Gollum may not be much of a warrior, he’s no stranger to slaying an unwary foe when the opportunity arises – or disposing of him in more creative and sinister ways.
