Weta Workshop studio (the same one that did special effects for Peter Jackson’s films) announced a game based on The Lord of the Rings. We are talking about a life simulator in the Shire called Tales of the Shire: A The Lord of The Rings Game.
Judging by the description, we are waiting for a typical farmer simulator. Players will have to create their own hobbit, arrange his Burrow, take care of the garden, fish, collect herbs, cook and trade with other inhabitants of the Shire.
Of course, you can alternate these activities with traveling around the area and searching for treasures. The developers promise that while exploring locations you will be able to meet many familiar characters from Tolkien’s books.
The game will be released in the fall on PC, PS5, Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch.
