Game of Thrones: Kingsroad announces closed beta test coming this month

Game of Thrones: Kingsroad – Closed Beta Coming January 15th!

Netmarble's upcoming Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, based on George R.R. Martin's books and the HBO series, is launching a closed beta on Android and PC. The beta begins January 15th and runs until the 22nd, available in the US, Canada, and select European regions. Sign-ups are open now!

Unlike previous Game of Thrones mobile games focusing on strategy, Kingsroad offers a third-person action-adventure experience. Players become the heir to House Tyre, embarking on a journey across Westeros, battling enemies, and building prestige.

The trailer showcases Witcher-esque gameplay, featuring third-person exploration and combat, with three character classes: Sellsword, Knight, and Assassin. While visually impressive, the ultimate test will be the full game's release.

Winter is Coming (and Beta Registration is Closing Soon!)

Registration for the closed beta ends January 12th. While Kingsroad looks promising, it will undoubtedly face intense scrutiny. Despite the peak of Game of Thrones' popularity having passed, a dedicated fanbase eagerly awaits a true immersive experience. Monetization and long-term support will be crucial factors in its success. Netmarble's success hinges on delivering the experience fans desire.
