Tales of the Shire - Concept Art Blast
From 2021 to 2025, the Wētā Workshop Game Studio brought to life 'Tales of the Shire: A The Lord of the Rings™ Game', a cozy life sim where you can live as a Hobbit in Bywater.
-
Throughout the creative development process, led by Game Studio Art Director Steve Lambert, artists from our Game and Design studios went through a process of world-building, designing every inch of the game - from characters, props, environments, critters, architecture and furniture through to in-game illustrations and textures.
