A gameplay trailer was shown for The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria tonight during Summer Game Fest 2023.

The video, narrated by the venerable actor John Rhys-Davies (Gimli!), gives us our first look at the game with never-before-seen footage from the PC version of the game.

The video shows the Dwarves as they delve into the cavernous Mines of Moria, collecting crucial resources for crafting and building while rekindling long-cold forges to forge more powerful weapons and armor.

The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria is a survival creation game initially announced for PC, but today it was revealed that PlayStation and Xbox versions are in the works.

In development at Free Range Games, the game is set in the Misty Mountains during the peaceful Fourth Age of Middle-earth. This original adventure finds a company of dwarves setting out to reclaim Moria’s ancient underground complex. Long abandoned and overrun by all manner of evil and orcish hordes, the company has been dispatched by none other than the lord of the Bright Caves himself, Gimli of the House of Durin, to retake the homeland of the Dwarves and reclaim their land. lost loot.

Controlling the dwarves, you will delve into the Mines of Moria to recover its treasures and join forces to survive, create, build and explore all that Dwarrowdelf has to offer. But beware: mysterious dangers await you, so stay alert.

The game allows you to create a custom Dwarf before going out alone or online with partners. Each adventure will be unique through the use of procedurally generated environments, meaning you can explore for treasure and mine for valuable minerals over and over again. However, always be careful not to create too much noise: it could attract the attention of dangers lurking in the depths.

The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria will be released this fall for PC via the Epic Game Store and on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
