Good news, bad news time once again. The good news is that The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria is on track to be released for PC on October 24. This release is an Epic Games Store exclusive from developer Free Range Games and North Beach Games.
The bad news today is that the digital PlayStation 5 version of the game has been delayed until December 5, 2023. This now means that the digital and physical release of The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria will be out at the same time. The Xbox Series X|S version of the game is still planned for early 2024.
In The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria players will create their own custom Dwarf before venturing into the cavernous mines of Moria alone or together with a company of fellow Dwarves online. Each adventure into the depths will bring unique challenges and opportunities through the use of procedurally generated environments, creating nearly endless possibilities as players seek the deepest delves of the Dwarves. As they venture ever deeper, the Dwarves will need to ensure their metal is ready to meet the dangers that lie within, crafting resilient armors and finely honed weapons capable of protecting against and defeating all manner of goblin, arachnoid, or more mysterious foes they may encounter. Excavate the mysteries of the Misty Mountains, extract precious metals prized by Dwarves, rebuild and refire forges that have long since gone cold, and learn the secret of the Shadow that lurks within.
The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria launches at $39.99 (USD) on October 24 for PC.
