Free League Publishing has announced The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying, a new game that adapts Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition rules for use in Middle-Earth. The game will introduce six new classes, six original “heroic cultures” found in Eriador, and rules for journeys, “wondrous artefacts”, and the more subtle style of magic found in Middle-Earth. A Core Rulebook and a Shire Adventures adventure module will be released for pre-order this fall, with a retail release planned in 1Q 2023.
This comes on the heels, of the new edition of The One Ring™ RPG, set in the world of The Lord of the Rings™ by J.R.R. Tolkien and designed by Francesco Nepitello and Marco Maggi, became the most successful tabletop roleplaying core game ever on Kickstarter when it ended March 4, 2021, raising over $2 million. Now the time has come to open Middle-earth for even more roleplayers with a brand new 5E adaptation.
The Lord of the Rings™ Roleplaying contains everything needed to create exciting 5E adventures set in the world’s most popular fantasy setting: six original heroic cultures from the land of Eriador, six new classes, a host of terrifying adversaries, and comprehensive rules for journeys, councils, wondrous artefacts, and the subtle magic of Middle-earth.
The Lord of the Rings™ Roleplaying core compendium will enter pre-order this fall, alongside a scenario module entitled Shire Adventures. A pre-order will give immediate access to a full PDF of the products. The retail release of both is planned for Q1 2023.
