New details are abound for The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria
North Beach Games and developer Free Range Games, took part in a live stream overnight for The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria, showing off new concept art and some screenshots from the game, as well as talking more about the upcoming survival crafting game.
The story of The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria takes players beyond the books and into the Fourth Age of Middle-earth, the fantastical world created by J.R.R. Tolkien. Summoned to the Misty Mountains by Lord Gimli Lockbearer, players take control of a company of Dwarves tasked to reclaim the lost spoils from the Dwarven homeland of Moria—known as Khazad-dûm or Dwarrowdelf—in the depths below their very feet. Their quest will require fortitude, delving deep into the Mines of Moria to recover its treasures. Players will join forces to survive, craft, build and explore the iconic, sprawling mines. Courageous expeditioners will need to be vigilant as mysterious dangers await.
The game has no release date beyond 2023 at this stage, but given the devs commitment to including the right lore from J.R.R. Tolkien’s world, I wouldn’t expect them to rush this one out.
Part of the stream delivered some new screens, which you can see below and then below those, we have some new concept art pieces, which all look pretty incredible.
