Cozy Lord of the Ring game pops up for the first time in 6 months with a sneak peek, and there's "more to come soon"

An upcoming cozy Lord of the Rings game has shared a first look at its artwork after being announced in September, and there's "more to come soon."

Almost exactly six months ago, developer Weta Workshop and publisher Private Division revealed Tales of the Shire, a "cozy" and "heartwarming" Lord of the Rings game. Now, we've finally got another very brief glimpse of the upcoming title. There's a lot to learn about the mysterious game but judging by its teaser trailer and this new artwork, we're expecting a life sim based in Middle-earth. 

Now, the official Tales of the Shire Twitter account has shared a concise video that gives us our first look at the world we'll soon be exploring. In the video, we see what looks like a very serene day in Hobbiton, with Hobbits fishing, chatting, and picnicking alongside a chicken and a duck. No other information is given, other than a caption on the post that reads: "Welcome Home, Hobbit."
