Game of Thrones: Kingsroad goes live today

• Game of Thrones: Kingsroad is set to release today
• Jump in and explore Westeros as a scion of noble House Tyre
• Take on monstrous creatures, meet iconic characters and enjoy a whole new storyline

As I noted just yesterday, despite its disastrous eighth season and a lengthy gap between book releases, Game of Thrones has experienced somewhat of a resurgence in recent years. Be it the new HBO prequel House of the Dragon, or renewed interest in the books, the time seems right for Netmarble’s new release Game of Thrones: Kingroad to launch, which is exactly what it’s doing!

Yes, as of the time of writing, you only need to wait until 5 pm PT (Pacific time) in order to jump in and enjoy Game of Thrones: Kingsroad for yourself on your platform of choice. With a whole new story, multiple classes such as Knights, Sellswords and Assassins to pick from, and of course, a detailed map of much of Westeros to explore.

In Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, you’ll be dropped into the story of the obscure House Tyre in the distant north and chart its (hopeful) rise from destitution to prosperity. Along the way, you’ll encounter famous characters, vicious monsters and more standing in your way.

Fit for a king

For fans who’ve already played in early access, this release will let you access a huge swathe of new content. And for those just jumping in, it’ll be up to them to judge whether or not this new release lives up to the lofty expectations fans have.

Undoubtedly, Game of Thrones is one of the most highly requested series to warrant its own RPG spin-off, and it’s been a long time coming. The only question now is whether it can live up to the hype.
