The first official gameplay trailer for Lord of the Rings: Gollum features the title character traveling through Mordor, haunted by inner voices.
Daedelic Entertainment and NACON released the first official game trailer for Lord of the Rings: Gollum.
The trailer shows Gollum sneaking around the kingdom of Mordor, using stealth to avoid and even take down enemies. He also alternates between his personas Gollum and Sméagol, while the One Ring continues to exert its influence on his fragile psyche. “The Precious is coming!” Gollum whines in one scene.
The game trailer also features the stealthy and parkour elements that chief designer Martin Wilkes previously said would be a big part of Gollum. “If you want a reference, you can consider it similar to Prince of Persia. It is mostly a non-combat game, but Gollum will be able to sneak defeat enemies, “explained Wilkes.” However, this will not be easy and will always involve great risks. We want players to weigh these encounters carefully. After all, Gollum’s strengths are in cunning, not combat. “
O Lord of the Rings: Gollum is scheduled to happen before the events of the Lord of the Rings trilogy and then Gollum fell under the corrupting influence of the One Ring. Gollum has also undergone a makeover to further separate the game from the Lord of the Rings films.
Lord of the Rings: Gollum is an action adventure based on a story. Take a dangerous journey like Gollum, chasing the one thing that is precious to him. Climb, jump and sneak through dangerous or advantageous locations. Gollum is skillful and cunning, but also torn apart by his divided 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 was once Sméagol.
Developed and published by Daedelic Entertainment and NACON, Lord of the Rings: Gollum arrives on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X | S, Nintendo Switch and PC in 2022.
