Hey, fellow gamers! Let me tell you about something exciting(yeah, its a fantasy 🙂 that just dropped – The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria is now free on Epic Games Store! This game was initially an Epic exclusive, and while it got mixed reactions from players, it’s definitely worth grabbing, especially now that it won’t cost you a dime.
Survival LOTR Game
Intresting thing is that John Rhys-Davies, who brilliantly portrayed Gimli in Peter Jackson’s original Lord of the Rings trilogy, lends his voice to the game. That alone adds some serious authenticity to this dwarven adventure and LOTR purists may be happy.
In case you’re wondering about the gameplay, it’s a survival fantasy that has you delving deep into Moria’s legendary halls. You can team up with friends to craft, build, and battle your way through the darkness beneath the Misty Mountains. Even if survival games aren’t usually your thing, the Middle-earth setting can make you try it.
More Mystery Gifts From Epic Store
But wait, there’s more! This is just the beginning of Epic’s holiday giveaway bonanza. They’re planning to unveil 15 more mystery gifts, each available for 24 hours, except the first and last ones which get a full week. The gift train starts with Moria (available until December 19th) and will keep rolling until January 9th, 2025. Every day at 17:00, a new surprise game drops.
The best part? The whole thing is building up to something big, with each reveal adding to the holiday excitement. While I can’t tell you what the upcoming games are (they’re keeping those under wraps), based on Epic‘s track record, we might be in for some real treats.
Want my advice? Grab Return to Moria while it’s free, even if you’re on the fence. At worst, it’s a free addition to your library, and at best, you might discover your next favorite game. Plus, make sure to check back daily – you never know what gem might pop up next in this holiday giveaway so check Epic from time to time.
