Middle‑earth Meets Warhorse Studios

The upcoming RPG will explore J.R.R. Tolkien’s legendary Middle‑earth, promising an expansive open‑world experience. This marks Warhorse’s first foray into the iconic fantasy universe, following their success with the historically grounded Kingdom Come: Deliverance series.

The announcement coincides with Embracer Group’s formation of Fellowship Entertainment, a new company dedicated to developing and licensing its biggest IPs, including Tomb Raider, Metro, Dead Island, and The Lord of the Rings.

While details remain scarce, Warhorse Studios assured fans: “We’re excited to tell you more when the time is right.” With Kingdom Come: Deliverance II receiving critical acclaim in 2025, expectations are high for how the studio will adapt Tolkien’s world into their signature RPG style.
