Oh boy, it's real: the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 dev is making a new The Lord of the Rings RPG in Middle-earth — and a third KCD game is coming next year, too

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2.

For several weeks now, rumors have been swirling about the next big RPG project from Warhorse Studios, the developer behind Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 — one of last year's most critically acclaimed titles across Xbox, PC, and PS5, and an award-winning open-world roleplaying experience that wowed gaming audiences with its rendition of medieval 15th Century Bohemia.

Now, I'm excited to share that the studio has publicly confirmed that the whispers were true: Warhorse is officially making "an open world Middle-earth RPG" set in the universe of the legendary fantasy series The Lord of the Rings penned by J. R. R. Tolkien. The news was announced early on Wednesday morning on social media as well as on Warhorse's website.
