Discover Westeros Anew: A Fresh Adventure with Game of Thrones: Kingsroad

If you’re a fan of Game of Thrones and have been yearning to immerse yourself in its world, get ready for Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, a free-to-play action-adventure RPG that’s on its way to PC and mobile. This game promises to be a delight for any Westeros enthusiast.

Set against the backdrop of Season 4, this new adventure introduces a fresh narrative in Westeros. You’ll step into the shoes of an heir to House Tyre, a minor Northern house entangled in the complex political web of the realm. This character brings something completely new to the series lore.

On your journey, you’ll encounter familiar faces like Jon Snow, Samwell Tarly, Lord Varys, and Cersei Lannister. The game presents a chance to witness previously unseen events, like House Bolton’s evolving political stance, all while traveling across the continent to iconic locales such as King’s Landing, Castle Black, and Highgarden. These places have been masterfully recreated to mirror their appearance in the series.

Exploration is a key feature here, offering the freedom to roam iconic locations and unexpected wilderness beyond the Wall. Venture into newly discovered towns, each with its unique quests and challenges that beautifully weave into the rich tapestry of Game of Thrones lore.

The game doesn’t just stop at main quests. It extends your adventure with side quests that continuously engage you. There are Faction and Estate tasks to be undertaken for rewards like money, gear, and crafting materials, letting you tailor your character and gear to your preferred style of play.

Of course, it wouldn’t be Game of Thrones without peril. Besides political danger, the world is populated with desperate souls who will do anything to survive. This is where the action RPG elements shine. Combat is defined through your class choice, with three options: Knight, Sellsword, or Assassin. Each class draws inspiration from the Game of Thrones universe. The Knight, echoing Westerosi chivalry, wields a longsword with precision. A Sellsword, thrumming with raw power, finds its roots among the Wildlings and Dothraki. Meanwhile, the Assassin embodies agility and lethality ala the Faceless Men and Dornish warriors.

Each class lays out distinct gear, traits, and skills, making character development a unique journey. Choose to focus your growth with trait trees in Attack, Defense, or Support, or become a well-rounded adventurer. With four skill slots available, you can empower your playstyle further with specialized skills tailored to each class.

Combat is an art of skillful timing and strategy. Not only can you guard and parry, but some enemy attacks demand agility to dodge. It’s all about observing enemy patterns, waiting for the right moment to strike, and thoughtfully plotting your counters to achieve victory.

Beyond the robust single-player campaign, Altar of Memories offers a multiplayer mode for those keen to join forces against legendary creatures like giant ice spiders, Skagos unicorns, majestic griffins, and menacing cockatrices.

Mark your calendars for an exciting launch on March 26 in Early Access. Pre-registration for Game of Thrones: Kingsroad is available now on their official website, covering both PC and mobile platforms, with the full release set for 2025. With features like cross-play and cross-progression, Westeros is yours to explore across any device. Stay informed by following the game’s updates on Twitter, Facebook, and Discord.
