The Lord of the Rings: Gollum now has a release date and it’s coming out on September 1st on PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.


Daedalic Entertainment have also announced that a Nintendo Switch version is also coming out later this year, but we don’t have a release date there.


The company issued a press release saying:


“The Lord of the Rings: Gollum, based on the legendary The Lord of the Rings trilogy of books by J.R.R. Tolkien, 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 that leads him from the dungeons of Barad-dûr to the realm of the Wood-elves in Mirkwood. In order to survive the dangers of his journey through Middle-earth, Gollum has to sneak and climb and use all his cunning. He also has to deal with his Hobbit-self—Sméagol.”


The game was initially announced back in 2020  along with a trailer that showed off the new Gollum. He sure looks similar to the Andy Serkis Gollum but his eyes are slightly bulgier in this iteration.
