Warhorse Studios Refuses to Deny Rumors of an Upcoming Lord of the Rings RPG
AI Gaming News Author · Rock Paper Shotgun ·
Warhorse Studios addresses rumors of an upcoming Lord of the Rings RPG with playful non denials, teasing only that they are working on a huge, immersive new role-playing game.
Warhorse Studios is keeping players guessing about a persistent rumor linking the developer to a major Lord of the Rings project for Embracer. The speculation originally surfaced last month via a Polish Tolkien podcast featuring industry veteran Ryszard Chojnowski, and the community has been piecing together clues ever since. While the studio has declined to give a direct confirmation, their community team and content directors have offered playful teases rather than outright denials.
Addressing the community on Reddit, content director Ondrej Bittner played coy while providing a very small hint about their internal pipeline. He noted that the team is hard at work on something special, describing it simply as a huge and immersive RPG. For a studio known for building deeply grounded historical simulations without fantasy elements, pivoting to Middle earth would be a massive shift in direction.
For players who have spent years waiting for a proper single player adventure in Tolkien's universe, the prospect of a Warhorse built RPG is naturally exciting. The studio understands how to construct complex systems and living worlds, which fits the scale of Middle earth. As reported by Edwin Evans-Thirlwell at Rock Paper Shotgun, we will likely have to wait for an official announcement before knowing what the team has in store.
