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. This action-adventure title, set during the fourth season of the hit HBO show, promises engaging combat and a rich narrative experience.
The closed beta, scheduled for January 16-22, 2025, in the US, Canada, and select European regions, offers fans an early look at the game before its full release later this year. Players can register via the game's official website.
Kingsroad features class-based progression with "fully manual" controls, allowing players to command characters like Jon Snow and Jaime Lannister. The game also introduces an original story centered around a new character, the heir to House Tyre in the North, and includes iconic figures such as Drogon.
The trailer showcases the game's visually appealing graphics and dynamic combat system, described by Netmarble as "raw, aggressive, and destructive." Drawing upon the rich lore and characters created by George R.R. Martin and the HBO adaptation, Kingsroad aims to deliver a compelling story-driven mobile gaming experience. The game's inclusion of characters inspired by Wildlings, Dothraki, and the Faceless Men further enhances its connection to the Game of Thrones universe.
With the long-awaited Winds of Winter still in progress, Game of Thrones: Kingsroad offers fans a significant addition to the franchise's gaming landscape, providing a captivating mobile experience while they await further installments in the broader Game of Thrones story.
