Tales of the Shire: A The Lord of the Rings Game is now available on Nintendo Switch 2.

From Private Division:

In this heart-warming game from developers Wētā Workshop, live the cozy life of a Hobbit in the wonderfully serene landscape of The Shire. Discover, decorate, and share in this peaceful corner of Middle-earth while playing a big part helping the quaint town of Bywater flourish. Bring comfort to your own Hobbit Hole and prepare homemade meals to share with fellow Hobbits. Relish in the outdoors by tending to your garden, fishing at serene ponds, and foraging wild bounty in the peaceful forests. Trade goods amongst townsfolk and foster relationships that turn into forever friendships. Your arrival marks the start of your story, which you can play at your own pace. It’s up to you to complete the Tales, or simply explore and thrive in your cozy Hobbit life for as long as you wish.

The Nintendo Switch 2 version will be available at no extra cost as a free Upgrade Pack for those who already own the title on Nintendo Switch.
