The Lord of the Rings Return to Moria is a survival crafter coming 2023

Surprise!

The Lord of the Rings Return to Moria was today announced at Summer Game Fest, a survival crafting affair planned for 2023.

“Narrated by venerable actor John Rhys-Davies, the first gameplay trailer for The Lord of the Rings Return to Moria features never-before-seen footage from the PC version of the game,” Free Range Games and North Beach Games said in a press release.

“Showcasing their renowned courage and camaraderie, the Dwarves set forth into the cavernous Mines of Moria, harvesting resources crucial for crafting and building while rekindling long-cold forges to smith more powerful weapons and armor as they venture deeper still into the dangers in the dark,” it continued.

“Players will create their very own custom Dwarf before their journey, alone or online with companions, where every new adventure will be unique through the use of procedurally generated environments. Dwarves can explore for treasure and mine valuable ores, always mindful to not create too much noise and attract the attention of the myriad dangers in the deep. Excavate the mysteries of the Misty Mountains, extract precious metals, scrape to survive, and battle unspeakable forces to learn the secret of the Shadow that lurks within.”

Check out some gameplay below.

Expect The Lord of the Rings Return to Moria later in 2023 on Windows PC via Epic Games Store, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X and PS5.
