In 1967, Caedmon Records released Poems and Songs of Middle-Earth, featuring J.R.R. Tolkien reading his own literary works amidst the rise of counterculture popularity.

Tolkien's extensive notes and legendarium building created Middle-earth as a character, culminating in a detailed backstory lasting over 6,500 years across three ages.

The statues honor the deep connection between Tolkien and East Yorkshire, where he found inspiration during his time recovering from trench fever in 1917.

Amazon is offering significant discounts on collectible editions of J.R.R. Tolkien's works, including special editions of The Hobbit and The Silmarillion, and a new box set of The Lord of the Rings.

The Golden Update grants new and existing players a procedurally generated sandbox mode to complement the game's (also generated) campaign, new weapons and armor, crossplay between all platforms with up to eight players, specific sliders for difficulty settings, and... a pause function in offline single-player, which seemingly was not there before.
