Though we've had some amazing The Lord of the Rings games over the years, a big-budget RPG title set in Tolkien's Middle-earth has long eluded us, but that could be about to change. According to rumors, Kingdom Come: Deliverance developer Warhorse Studios is working on a big-budget LOTR game, seemingly backed by investors from the UAE.
Last October, Insider Gaming wrote that a huge The Lord of the Rings game was in development, backed by the Abu Dhabi Investment Office out of the United Arab Emirates, which reportedly invested $100 million into this supposed title. The IP is owned by Embracer Group, one of the parties said to be involved in this deal, and a publisher that previously had dealings with Arabian investors.
