We've been up and down on The Lord of the Rings: Gollum ever since its initial reveal a few years back, but we're going to go ahead and say that this is probably the game's best trailer so far. There's actually some story intrigue here, coupled with glimpses of fantastical environments. We're still not sure why we'd want to play as the titular creature, in all of his creepy glory, but this fresh look at the PS5 and PS4 project does show promise.
The only problem is that we don't have a confirmed release date. Publisher Nacon says that the game's still on track for a vague '2023' launch, however, so we should be getting something a bit more definitive in the relatively near future.

Robert's been a dedicated PlayStation fan since the days of Tekken 2, and he still loves a good dust up. When he's not practising combos, he's usually getting lost in the latest 100-hour RPG, or, y'know, replaying The Witcher 3.
This looks fantastic, just wish we had a launch date.
@Axelay71 not fantastic, if you ask me, but much better, than it did before. Delay was a right decision.
Oh that looks much better. I was anxious af about this game. Now it looks like it knows what it's doing.
Trailer looks good! As a big LoTR fan I'll be playing it for sure and Gollum makes an interesting change.
Would really like to see Avalanche Software making a LoTR game sometime. Love the work they did with Hogwarts so I'd like to see them doing it for LoTR too.
