Private Division, a publishing label of Take-Two, signed a publishing agreement with Wētā Workshop, which worked on The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Together the companies are working on a game set in the Middle-earth universe in development in Wētā Workshop's interactive game division.
The announcement states that Wētā Workshop has "the broadest creative license to interpret the underlying lore of the books" due to Middle-earth Enterprises licensing the literary works of the series.
“It’s a privilege to create a new game set in Middle-earth, especially one that’s so different from what fans have played previously,” said Amie Wolken, Head of Interactive at Wētā Workshop. “As fans ourselves, we’re excited for gamers to explore Middle-earth in a way they never have before, and introduce new fans to the magic of The Lord of the Rings.”
What exactly fans should expect to see the companies didn't specify. The game is in early development and doesn't have a release date but it is expected to launch before the end of March 2024.
