If you’ve been eagerly waiting for a game that immerses you in the world of Game of Thrones, your wish is about to come true. Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, an action-adventure RPG that’s free to play, is on its way to both PC and mobile.
This game introduces a fresh story set in Westeros during the latter half of Game of Thrones’ fourth season. You step into the shoes of a new character, an heir from House Tyre, a smaller house in the North embroiled in the political chaos of the realm.
As you embark on your adventure, you’ll cross paths with iconic characters like Jon Snow, Samwell Tarly, Lord Varys, and Cersei Lannister. Prepare to witness events you’ve never encountered before, such as the wavering allegiances of House Bolton. Your journey will take you through legendary locations including King’s Landing, Castle Black, and Highgarden, all meticulously recreated to mirror their television counterparts.
The expansive open world allows for free exploration through these famous locales, as well as venturing into the wilderness beyond the Wall and uncovering hidden towns. Each town offers unique quests and challenges intricately tied to the rich tapestry of Game of Thrones lore.
In addition to engaging main quests that propel the narrative, the game provides a variety of side activities that invite you to fully explore Westeros. Optional Faction and Estate tasks are available, rewarding you with money, gear, and crafting materials to personalize your character and gear according to your preferences.
But remember, this is Westeros, and danger lurks around every corner—not just in the political arena. You’ll encounter desperate souls willing to do anything to survive, making the action RPG combat a thrilling experience.
Your choice of character class—Knight, Sellsword, or Assassin—will shape your combat style. The Knight aims for precision, reflecting the esteemed fighters of Westeros. The Sellsword, drawing inspiration from Wildlings and Dothraki, uses sheer brute force. The Assassin excels in agility, with influences from the Faceless Men and Dorne’s skilled fighters.
Each class comes with distinct gear, traits, and skills, offering a wide array of ways to develop your character. Within the trait trees of Attack, Defense, and Support, players can either specialize or maintain a versatile approach. Four skill slots allow you to equip special abilities, unique to each class.
Success in combat requires more than just brute force. You’ll need to read enemy moves and react strategically. While some attacks can be guarded or parried, others must be dodged, demanding your full attention and clever tactics.
Beyond the main storyline, there’s a multiplayer experience called Altar of Memories. Here, you can join forces with other players to battle mythical creatures like colossal ice spiders, Skagos unicorns, majestic griffins, and terrifying cockatrices.
Mark your calendars because the game launches in Early Access on March 26. You can secure your pre-registration for Game of Thrones: Kingsroad through the official site. It’s available on both Steam and Windows Launcher for PC and mobile platforms, with cross-play and cross-progression features upon its full release in 2025. Keep an eye on Twitter, Facebook, and Discord for the latest news and updates.
