The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum
The gameplay is finally here for The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum we can see just how we will have Gollum sneaking around the world
We can all finally stop speculating on just how the gameplay for The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum is going to function now. After all of the waiting and just getting ever closer to the September 1st release date, Daedalic Entertainment has finally given us all that precious gameplay we could have wanted. Well, at least a solid sampling of it all to help us all get ready to help Gollum make it through the lands of Middle-Earth on the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, and PC. There is at least some solid path we have to walk down in the game or we will break the space and time of the universe here and then it all might have never existed. Weird to go a bit more Sci-Fi when talking about a Fantasy title for now, but this is how logic loops work in our canon-obsessed culture now.
Just as we expected and speculated before, Gollum will be another stealth title with the likes of Styx from the past. Not a huge surprise as the character was never made out to be a huge action or adventure style of character in the past. Gollum will have to crawl, run, swim, and climb about the world to get past all of the enemies and brutes out in the mix of it all. It would be nice to see if he will have the same options we have had in other titles like it where we will be able to strike back in sneaky ways. I am talking about setting up traps or allowing for some stealth kills in the mix. Again, it is not something that the character has ever been able to do in the past too, but sometimes we have to alter all of that to make sure we have a good bit of gameplay as well. Have a look at the trailer below and see just how it will all look and function out there. We only have a few more months before we can play it all.
The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum — Gameplay
Daedalic Entertainment and NACON are excited to reveal the first gameplay footage of their story-driven adventure The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum – Daedalic’s take on one of the most iconic characters in fantasy history arrives on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S on September 1st. The Nintendo Switch version is planned for later this year.
Gollum is perhaps the most maligned and misunderstood creature in all of Middle-earth, cursed with dueling personalities and a constant compulsion to find his Preciousss. The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum takes players on an exceptional journey, sharing a perspective unique to Gollum. Whether creeping through tall grass or swimming in rivers, Gollum must adapt and move in the shadows if he is to evade enemies during his adventure. From the mountains of Mordor, to the Mines of Moria, and passing through Mirkwood Forest, players will explore a variety of diverse environments and experience an enthralling narrative adventure. Beginning September 1st, explore this original story created by Daedalic Entertainment and officially licensed by Middle-earth Enterprises.
The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum is based on the legendary The Lord Of The Rings trilogy of books by J.R.R. Tolkien, and tells of Gollum’s experiences from behind the scenes in the first chapters of The Fellowship Of The Ring. After losing his precious ring to Bilbo Baggins, Gollum decides to leave the Misty Mountains and embark on a perilous journey across Middle-earth, where he encounters well-known characters from the books as well as new potential allies and antagonists. It’s up to the players if they want Gollum to have the upper hand when making important decisions, or allow his Hobbit-self, Sméagol, to take over. To survive the dangers he encounters during his adventures, Gollum must use all of his cunning to distract and sneak past enemies while climbing and platforming across the vertically-designed environments.
