A building game in the Lord of the Rings cosmos? This dream is now at least a little bit true. But anyone who is already planning to build a new district in Minas Tirith, clear the rubble in Helm’s Deep or expand Moria into a cozy dwarven health resort will have to be disappointed. In Tales of the Shire, as the name suggests, we go to the tranquil Shire. You create your own hobbit and can expand and decorate your own cave (the aforementioned construction part), go fishing, get to know other hobbits and more. You can already tell: Tales of the Shire is a comfortable life simulation, so not for adrenaline junkies. We have summarized further information about the game for you in this news. The game is being developed by Weta Workshop, the company that is also responsible for the visual effects of Peter Jackson’s film trilogy, which have aged well to this day. An exact release date is not yet known, the game is scheduled to appear for PC, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5 and the Nintendo Switch in autumn 2024.
