Warhorse Studios, the team behind Kingdom Come Deliverance, confirms it is developing an open-world role-playing game set in Tolkien’s Middle-earth. Multiple outlets report that the studio has made the Middle-earth RPG announcement publicly, aligning with earlier rumours that it was working on a Lord of the Rings title. The reports describe the project as an open-world RPG, but do not provide additional details about gameplay, release timing, or platforms.
In the same announcement, Warhorse also confirms it is working on a separate new “Kingdom Come adventure.” Coverage notes that the wording is ambiguous, leaving open what form the new Kingdom Come project will take—such as another mainline entry, a different type of game, or another format. None of the sources provide confirmed information beyond the fact that both projects are in development concurrently. The overall picture presented is that Warhorse is expanding beyond its medieval setting while continuing its Kingdom Come work, with more specifics expected in future announcements.
