Game of Thrones Mobile Strategy Unveils Gameplay Features

Netmarble's upcoming mobile RPG, Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, has unveiled a new gameplay trailer and details about its closed beta. Set during the show's fourth season, this action-adventure game promises engaging combat and a rich narrative expanding on the established Game of Thrones lore.

The closed beta, scheduled for January 16-22, 2025, in the US, Canada, and select European regions, offers fans an early look at the class-based progression system featuring "fully manual" controls. Players can choose from various classes, including knights and assassins. The game boasts a compelling original storyline centered around a new character, the heir to House Tyrell in the North, alongside iconic characters like Jon Snow, Jaime Lannister, and even Drogon.

Announced in November 2024 and further highlighted at The Game Awards, Kingsroad aims to deliver "raw, aggressive, and destructive" combat. Netmarble, known for titles like Marvel Future Fight and Ni no Kuni: Cross Worlds, is leveraging the rich world and characters created by George R.R. Martin and HBO to craft a compelling mobile experience. The over-one-minute trailer showcases the game's features, hinting at a robust and immersive gameplay experience.

The beta test, accessible via the game's official website, precedes the full launch later in 2025, providing a much-anticipated opportunity for fans to engage with the Game of Thrones universe in a new way. This mobile title offers a significant addition to the franchise's gaming landscape while fans eagerly await the next installment of the A Song of Ice and Fire book series.
