Netmarble's upcoming mobile RPG, Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, gets a gameplay trailer and closed beta announcement. Set during the show's fourth season, this action-adventure title promises engaging combat and a rich narrative.
Key features highlighted include:
- Class-based progression: Players can choose from various classes, such as knights and assassins, with "fully manual" controls.
- Iconic characters: Jon Snow, Jaime Lannister, and Drogon are confirmed, among others.
- Original storyline: A new character, heir to House Tyre in the North, will drive a fresh narrative within the established Game of Thrones universe.
A closed beta test will run from January 16th to 22nd, 2025, in the US, Canada, and select European regions. Access will be granted via the game's official website. A full release is planned for later in 2025.
The over-one-minute gameplay trailer showcases the game's visually appealing combat and character designs. The developers, Netmarble (creators of Marvel Future Fight and Ni no Kuni: Cross Worlds), promise "raw, aggressive, and destructive" combat. The game's setting and characters draw inspiration from the books and HBO series, offering a compelling experience for fans eagerly awaiting the next installment of A Song of Ice and Fire. The game serves as a welcome addition to the Game of Thrones universe while fans await the release of The Winds of Winter and other related projects.
