HBO Game of Thrones: Kingsroad Gameplay Details Released

Game of Thrones: Kingsroad Mobile RPG Beta Test Announced

Netmarble's upcoming mobile RPG, Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, has unveiled a new gameplay trailer and details about its closed beta test. The game, set during the show's fourth season, promises engaging combat and a rich narrative experience for fans.

The closed beta will run from January 16th to 22nd, 2025, in the US, Canada, and select European regions. Registration will be available through the game's official website. This hands-on opportunity will precede the full game launch later in 2025.

Kingsroad features class-based progression with "fully manual" controls, allowing players to master different character types, such as knights and assassins. The game boasts an original storyline centered around a new character, the heir to House Tyre in the North. Popular characters like Jon Snow, Jaime Lannister, and Drogon will also feature prominently.

The recently released trailer showcases the game's impressive graphics and action-packed combat, described by the developers as "raw, aggressive, and destructive." Drawing on the rich lore and characters created by George R.R. Martin and the HBO series, Kingsroad aims to deliver a compelling story-driven mobile experience. Its inclusion of original characters inspired by Wildlings, Dothraki, and the Faceless Men adds another layer of intrigue.

The beta test offers a welcome distraction for Game of Thrones fans eagerly awaiting the next book in the series, The Winds of Winter. While George R.R. Martin's progress has faced setbacks, Kingsroad, along with other projects like A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and House of the Dragon season 3, provides plenty for fans to enjoy in the meantime.
