Tales of the Shire: A Lord of the Rings Game - PS5

Tales of the Shire: A Lord of the Rings Game puts you in the hairy feet of a custom Hobbit settling in Bywater, the serene pocket of Middle Earth from J.R.R. Tolkien's books. Developed by Wētā Workshop, this is a cosy life sim that centres on the everyday pleasures of Hobbit existence: decorating your hole, growing food, fishing, and building community. Work alongside familiar faces and iconic characters to help Bywater achieve official village status.

• Create and customise your own Hobbit with appearance options and attire
