The Future Games Show Spring Showcase is just around the corner. The event, which is scheduled in for 25th March, will apparently show off 40 games during its runtime. While most of the show is naturally under wraps, more details have emerged regarding the pre-show.

This preliminary segment will be focused on developer Daedalic Entertainment and its games. The 15-minute block will host seven titles from the studio, and that includes its highest profile upcoming release, The Lord of the Rings: Gollum. The elusive game, announced a couple of years back, is coming to PlayStation 5, and during this event, we'll get to see "the world’s first footage" of the action adventure.

Might be interested, although Gollum looks a little too much like a cartoon monkey from the screenshots. I think they could have made him look a little more like the deformed humanoid creature he is than a grey, hairless ape.

I imagine it will be a stealth game with possible puzzle elements as Gollum cannot fight. I don't know how it really can get too exciting, but I guess we'll see.

I didn't know there was a games showcase coming up soon, so that's a pleasant surprise. The Gollum game might be interesting for me, so seeing gameplay footage would be good.
