Technical issues dampen the gaming experience
Unfortunately, during our first impressions of The Lord of the Rings: Gollum on PS5, we encountered some technical issues. As of the time of this article, no patch has been released to address these issues. However, the developers have assured that a day-one patch will solve the difficulties.
Despite these issues, the initial gameplay segments are quite entertaining, with climbing and swinging being fun at first, but may become monotonous as the game progresses. The game's dark atmosphere differs from Peter Jackson's film adaptations and is more closely aligned with Tolkien's literary work.
Conclusion: An entertaining stealth game for Tolkien fans
The Lord of the Rings: Gollum is not a groundbreaking game, but it offers an interesting experience for fans of J.R.R. Tolkien's universe. As a stealth platformer, it takes Gollum (and players) through some of the most well-known locations in Middle-earth and allows them to encounter familiar characters like Gandalf. Once the technical issues are resolved, the game should provide an entertaining adventure for fans of the books and movies.
