  • The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria has been delayed for Xbox Series X/S, with a new release date set for early 2024.
  • The delay has disappointed Xbox fans, but the PC and PS5 versions are still scheduled for release on October 24.
The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria has officially been delayed, but only on Xbox Series X/S. Excitement has been building for the late October launch of The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria, but it seems that Xbox fans will have to wait substantially longer than their fellows on PC and PlayStation 5. The co-op multiplayer crafting and survival game remains on schedule for both PC and PS5.

Must be the split screen.

Well the series X version has been delayed too.
Microsoft won't certify your game for distribution on either Xbox console unless it runs on both platforms without compromises.

That's... kind of becoming a problem, obviously.
 
And some called me a "concern troll" for stating Series S would hold games back from DAY 1.

Use your brains folks
 
Some said the same thing about Baulder's Gate 3
Perhaps. But we've known what BG3 was going to be like for years due to PC early access, so people who said it would be bad are just being stupid. You may think I'm defending the Xbox here, but I'm actually not. If Series S can't pull off a game as simplistic as this cheap-looking survival crafting game then Microsoft is in serious trouble.
 
What is going on.....

The tweet says PS5 and PC is coming in 2023. The article has a typo.

I'm dumb...its saying Oct 24th...of this year, lol.

Devs said it's due to "Limited resources." Which really means "We can't get it working on the S."

XBOX Parity clause is working in PS favour.
Dev's said its due to limited resources, which really means whatever I want it to mean. LMFAO

People are blaming the Series S being the reason for the delay for a game that looks like this? That's a really stupid take. Baldurs Gate 3 I can understand, but this?

A dev with less than 100 people who mostly worked as a support studio outside of some tiny full game releases that says "limited resources" means they literally don't have the headcount to ship a full AA game on four platforms.

Yet so many other indie devs can.
