Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, an action-packed mobile game set to launch in 2025, will feature Jon Snow and the Night’s Watch, where players will join them to battle White Walkers in epic combat, all showcased during the G-Star expo, as part of a thrilling new mobile game experience.
Announced at the prestigious G-Star 2024 gaming expo in Busan, South Korea, the game marks a significant collaboration between HBO, Warner Bros. Games, and South Korean developer Netmarble. This exciting addition to the Game of Thrones franchise will be available exclusively on iOS and Android, offering fans an immersive gaming experience north of the Wall.
Game of Thrones: Kingsroad departs from the strategy-based gameplay of its predecessors, embracing a third-person action RPG format. Players will embark on a treacherous journey as a new protagonist from a Northern house, battling iconic foes like White Walkers, giants, and even the Night King himself. While Jon Snow plays a pivotal role in the narrative, the gameplay focuses on this original hero, allowing for fresh storytelling in the frozen wilderness of Westeros.
