A new The Lord of the Rings game has been officially announced, and it’s arriving much sooner than you would normally expect, with a release set for October 2027. The franchise, based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s book series, has been consistently expanding and getting new releases, especially after the Peter Jackson movies were released in the early 2000s. Now, two new Lord of the Rings projects, both led by Peter Jackson himself, are in the works, and one of them is nearly done. Outside of movies, however, the LotR franchise is growing, too, and a new game arrives next year.
While there are a few LoTR video game projects both confirmed and rumored to be in development right now, there is also an expansion of the franchise into the tabletop scene. As seen on a project page on Kickstarter, The Lord of the Rings: The King’s Gambit is also in production, allowing fans of the high fantasy series to embark on a board game adventure across several important locations in Middle-earth, including Minas Tirith and Pelennor Fields. The project has been fully back on Kickstarter, and the estimated delivery is October 2027.
