New The Lord of the Rings RPG officially teased

Our fellow The Lord of the Rings fans, we have cause for celebration, for a new RPG has been officially teased.

We’re not talking about the adorable lookingTales of the Shire, but rather about a grittier adaptation of the series.

The teaser is subtle, though, and thus little has been given away.

Have you seen theTales of the Shiretrailer yet?

The artwork depicts Gollum hunched over, caressing the ring while in the depths of a cave, possibly the cave that Bilbo visited inThe Hobbit; it would be a fitting way to connect this upcoming tale with lore we already know.

“One ring to rule them all,” reads the announcement’s caption.

It’s seriously not much to go on, we know, but it looks stunning – that one image has us eager to see the art of the full game.

We don’t know who the artist is yet, however, wedoknow that Repos Production will be the publisher of this new chapter inThe Lord of the Ringsnarrative.

The title for this new RPG has yet to be revealed.

If you’re enjoying riding the speculation train, elsewhere the fandom is certain that a remake ofThe Return of the Kingwill follow OG Battlefront releases. It’s not much, but it gives us a smidgen of hope that our time is coming.

As avid fans of LOTR, we can’t wait to see exactly what this new journey into Middle-earth has in store for us. We anticipate grappling with moral dilemmas, maybe tossing the odd dwarf here and there (minds out of the gutter, people).

Whatever this board game throws at us, we’re ready to lend our bow… or our awkward wit, if nothing else.
