New Game of Thrones Game Announced

As a seasoned gamer with a profound affection for the captivating world of Westeros and its complex characters, I must admit my excitement is brewing like wildfire upon hearing about the upcoming mobile RPG, “Game of Thrones: Kingsroad.” My gaming journey has traversed numerous digital landscapes, but none have ignited my curiosity quite like the intricate political machinations and epic battles of George R.R Martin’s masterpiece.

The realm of Westeros has returned in an entirely fresh format! At The Game Awards, it was officially disclosed that ‘Game of Thrones’ is being developed into a new video game, specifically designed for mobile devices. In partnership with HBO, Netmobile is bringing us ‘Game of Thrones: Kingsroad’, which is set to debut next year.

According to its official description, Game of Thrones: Kingsroad is a role-playing game for mobile devices that takes place in the world of Westeros. You can pick from three character classes: Assassin, Sellsword, or Knight. Once you’ve chosen your class, you’ll explore well-known locations and take part in hands-on combat using your skills. Along the way, you may encounter characters like Jamie Lannister, Lord Varys, and Jon Snow, who doesn’t know much at all.

Game of Thrones,” which airs on HBO, is among their top-rated shows, surpassing the popularity of series like “The Sopranos” and “The West Wing.” This show is adapted from George R.R Martin’s widely read book series and revolves around a group of characters vying for control of the coveted Iron Throne, left vacant following some events. While the Stark family plays a significant role, other families such as the Lannisters also receive attention. “Game of Thrones” is highly acclaimed by critics, having won 59 Emmys out of its 164 nominations across its seven seasons.

It’s not the first occasion that Game of Thrones has been adapted for video games. Remarkably, Telltale Games, a popular choice at game awards, developed their version of the series during its peak popularity in 2014. Named “Game of Thrones: A Telltale Games Series“, this game spanned across six episodes, with the final one released in 2015. This new game appears to be the most TV-series like, as it models its visuals after the actors from the show such as Kit Harrington and Nikolas Costeau-Waldou.

Game of Thrones: Kingsroad will launch on iOS and Android in 2025.
