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 and develop their characters, mastering different fighting styles.
- Iconic characters: Jon Snow, Jaime Lannister, and Drogon are confirmed, alongside a new original character.
- Fully manual controls: Players have complete control over their characters' actions in combat.
- Original storyline: A fresh narrative unfolds, expanding the Game of Thrones universe.
The closed beta test runs from January 16th to 22nd, 2025, in the US, Canada, and select European regions. Access will be granted via the official website. A full release is slated for later in 2025.
The over-one-minute trailer showcases the game's dynamic combat system and introduces the new House Tyre heir character. Drawing inspiration from Wildlings, Dothraki, and the Faceless Men, Kingsroad offers a unique Game of Thrones experience. The game's potential to become a top mobile title with a compelling story is high, given the rich lore and characters from George R.R. Martin's work and the HBO series. This provides a welcome diversion for fans eagerly awaiting The Winds of Winter and other upcoming projects in the franchise.
