Lord of the Rings: Gollum Confirmed for PS5, Xbox Series X
Daedalic Entertainment has reaffirmed that its action-adventure game The Lord of the Rings: Gollum will be coming to next-gen consoles including PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X alongside PC in 2021.
This is what the studio told Edge magazine for its February 2020 issue, which has a number of interviews with key developers that reveal the first new details about the game since its announcement back in March 2019.
For starters, Daedalic has set out to invent its own version of main character Gollum rather than follow the look given to him in Peter Jackson’s movies. “Tolkien didn’t give a size reference for Gollum to begin with,” art director Mathias Fischer told Edge. “So in the first illustrations, he’s gigantic! He’s like a monster emerging from the swamp.” Daedalic hasn't yet revealed what Gollum will look like in the game.

No Time to Die: Hans Zimmer to Reportedly Score James Bond 25
It looks like legendary composer Hans Zimmer may score the upcoming James Bond film.
According to Variety, multiple sources have come forward claiming that Zimmer is the composer for No Time to Die, the 25th James Bond movie. This comes after Dan Romer was dismissed only last month over what were said to be creative differences.
Variety also reached out to previous Bond film composer David Arnold who confirmed he had not been contacted regarding the role, giving more weight to Zimmer's likely position.
This latest and final addition to Daniel Craig's Bond is reportedly already in post-production so Zimmer, who's best known for his work on films like Inception, Gladiator, and Interstellar, won't have much time and may even need to bring others in to help with the project.
