In early 2019, the Lego games based on the Lord of the Rings series disappeared from Steam without a trace. While no official word came from anyone involved with the games, it was assumed that licensing issues had cropped up necessitating their removal. It now seems, however, that those issues are solved. Both Lego: The Lord of the Rings and Lego: The Hobbit have made a triumphant return to Steam. Both games are based on the iconic novels by J.R.R. Tolkien and their interpretation in films by Peter Jackson. Each game runs $19.99.
About Lego: Lord of the Rings
Trusted with the dangerous task to destroy an ancient magical ring that threatens all that is good, Frodo is forced to leave his peaceful home. But the ring wants to be found and the road to Mount Doom, the only place where it can be destroyed, will be perilous and riddled with Orcs and fouler things. To help Frodo, a Fellowship is formed —Aragorn the Ranger, Gandalf the Wizard, Legolas the Elf, Gimli the Dwarf, Boromir a Man of Gondor, and Frodo’s Hobbit friends Sam, Merry and Pippin. Players relive the legend through the LEGO mini-figures, as they explore wonders, solve timeless riddles, and overcome endless foes in their quest to destroy the Ring.
