Hollin Gate

Tur­bine pro­vided Mas­sively with 4 dif­fer­ent shots of Hollin Gate from Mines of Moria. I put one above, but you can see the rest on their site. As you may recall, Hollin Gate is the entrance to Moria used within the books and film.

It’ll be inter­est­ing to see how Tur­bine han­dles even just the open­ing of the gate itself. After all, Gan­dalf him­self wasn’t exactly con­fi­dent of the word needed to open Hollin Gate .… Makes you won­der if your char­ac­ters should nec­es­sar­ily know any bet­ter. That and the door is appar­ently cov­ered in rub­ble now.

Of course, it’s also worth men­tion­ing the Watcher (the crea­ture that attacks the Fel­low­ship after Pip­pin throws a rock into the water). Tur­bine has talked about this crea­ture a few times before, but it will be fun to see how that plays out.
