Does Lord Of The Rings: Gollum Have Multiplayer?

Now, does Lord Of The Rings: Gollum have multiplayer? No, it does not. As a matter of fact, the game won’t be having any online elements whatsoever, which means there’s no way for you to go against your friends in a multiplayer game mode. There is also no couch or split screen multiplayer option.

This comes as a shock to many players, as they were hoping for a game mode similar to the newer Hitman series, where friends are pitted against each other in a time based multiplayer mode. The aim of this mode is to see which player is able to complete a specific stage quicker. Throw in some special conditions like making it stealth only or a pacifist run and you have yourself a recipe for a very good time.

Does The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum Have Co-Op?

Now that we clarified that there isn’t any player vs player multiplayer mode in Lord Of The Rings: Gollum, how about a co-op game mode where players can work together to complete stages more efficiently?

Well, unfortunately, when we said there weren’t any online elements whatsoever, that included there being no online co-op mode either. In addition, there isn’t any couch co-op option in this game either, and this includes both split and same screen co-op.

This means you’ll have no choice but to go through the entire game alone. Fortunately, there are multiple skills you can unlock, and if you find yourself stuck in any section of the game, then there’s always the option to sneak past the enemies.
