The The Lord of the Rings: Gollum (PlayStation 5) is a story-driven stealth action-adventure game developed by Daedalic Entertainment and published by Nacon. Released on May 25, 2023, it is based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth universe and focuses on the character Gollum / Sméagol, exploring events that occur before and alongside The Lord of the Rings trilogy.
The game follows Gollum during his imprisonment and escape from Mordor, as he journeys across iconic locations such as Barad-dûr, Mirkwood, and Cirith Ungol, while being torn between his two personalities—Gollum (violent and selfish) and Sméagol (calmer and more hesitant).
Gameplay is built around stealth, climbing, and traversal rather than direct combat. Players must sneak past enemies, avoid detection, and use environmental routes to progress. A key mechanic is the dual-personality choice system, where dialogue and decisions are influenced by whether Gollum or Sméagol takes control.
