Hamburg, Germany, Dec. 10th, 2021 – Daedalic Entertainment and NACON have unveiled a new teaser trailer for The Lord of the Rings™: Gollum™ during the 2021 edition of The Game Awards. The struggle between the two personalities of Sméagol and Gollum is ever-present, and you can see just how they play off each other in this tiny peek of the stealth-action adventure that’s set to release in 2022. Coming to PC, PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch, The Lord of the Rings™: Gollum™ offers a brand-new perspective, all the while staying true to the vision laid out in The Lord of the Rings.
The Lord of the Rings™: Gollum™ is a story-driven action-adventure, where players take on the role of Gollum to win back his precious lost ring. They have to climb, jump and sneak through dangerous areas, avoid getting caught and try to keep the upper hand. Gollum is skillful and sly, but also torn by his split personality. It is up to you to decide whether the darker side of Gollum takes over or if there is a spark of reason left in what once was Sméagol.
The Lord of the Rings™: Gollum™ is developed by Daedalic Entertainment in official partnership with Middle-earth Enterprises and co-published by Daedalic and NACON.
