- Warhorse Studios is making a new The Kingdom will come game
- The studio also confirmed that a new open-world RPG set in Middle-earth is in the works.
- There’s no release window yet, but Warhorse says “we look forward to sharing more with you when the time is right.”
Warhorse Studios has announced that its upcoming projects are now in development, and they include a new The Kingdom will come title and an open world Lord of the Rings role play.
“You may have heard the rumors, it’s time to reveal what we’re working on. An open-world RPG set in Middle Earth. A new The Kingdom will come adventure,” the studio said in a new social media post. “We’re excited to tell you more when the time comes.”
The wording of the new The Kingdom will come “adventure” suggests that the game will not be a sequel to Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2but a whole new story set in the same universe.
Although Warhorse has yet to reveal any details about this particular project, it has shared more about its Lord of the Rings role-playing game (RPG) on its website, while promising “more things to come from the world of Kingdom Come: Deliverance“.
“Warhorse Studios is entering a new chapter. We are working on a new RPG set in Middle-earth,” the studio said. “We’ve always created worlds full of stories that draw you in – and that’s exactly the kind of Middle-earth we’ll one day show you.
“For now, we have a long journey ahead of us, and we look forward to sharing more with you when the time is right.”

Rumors about a Middle-earth game have been popping up since late 2025, before the recent announcement.
Warhorse’s parent company, Embrace Group, recently shared plans to strengthen its Lord of the Rings media production under its new subsidiary Fellowship Entertainment, an intellectual property-led entertainment company “built around game development, publishing and a licensing-first approach, as a steward of Lord of the Rings, Tomb Raider and many other great intellectual properties”.
Embracer also owns the rights to create new games and other media based on The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit after acquiring Middle-earth Enterprises from The Saul Zaentz Company in 2022.
Warhorse has yet to confirm which era its Middle-earth RPG will take place in – Lord of the Rings takes place mainly at the end of the Third Age – but there are plenty of options to explore. Regardless, an open-world game from the award-winning studio has already got fans excited.
