Since it was added to Game Pass Ultimate, Premium, and PC on January 20th, we can expect it to be available to play around that same date.

Okay, so I’ve been following the reviews for the new Game of Thrones spin-off, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, and while the first reactions are mostly good, it seems like it’s not quite hitting the same high notes as previous seasons. Right now, it’s sitting at 83% on Rotten Tomatoes after 36 reviews. That’s a decent score, but it’s noticeably lower than what we’ve come to expect from this universe. Every season of the original Game of Thrones was above 90% until the very last one, and House of the Dragon also started strong with 90% and 84% for its first two seasons. I expect that score to change a bit as more reviews come in, but honestly, I’m not totally surprised. This new show seems to be a smaller, more focused story, and maybe that’s leading to a little bit of critical disappointment given the incredibly high bar set by everything that came before.

Although this version of the game was initially praised, it doesn’t perform as well as the original release on System 22. It runs at a slower frame rate – 30fps on North American consoles and a very sluggish 25fps on European ones – and the graphics aren’t as good.
