The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum Game Has A New Launch Window

The previously-delayed-to-God-knows-when action-adventure title The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum has a new release window.

Co-publishers Nacon and Daedalic Entertainment have announced the game’s new schedule: during the six months ending in September 2023. This was confirmed in both companies’ financial report this week. This means the game will only be out between April and September 2023.

The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum takes place in events parallel to the first entry of the fantasy book series; you control the titular character Gollum as he embarks on a quest to retrieve the One Ring. The game was supposed to be out in 2021 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series before it was delayed indefinitely. The official statement is below:

“During the past several years, the team has been working hard to share our vision of a remarkable story, set in a breathtaking world, filled with magic and wonder. We are dedicated to meeting our community’s expectations and uncovering the untold story of Gollum in a way that honors the vision of J.R.R. Tolkien.

That being said, in order to deliver the best possible experience, we have decided to push the release of The Lord of the Rings: Gollum by a few months. We’ll update with an exact timing in the near future.”
