"Game of Thrones: Kingsroad Demo Now Playable on Steam Ahead of Mobile Launch"

One of Netmarble's most eagerly awaited upcoming releases is the action RPG, *Game of Thrones: Kingsroad*. Despite George R. R. Martin's ongoing saga of unfinished books, the epic fantasy series retains a massive following, fueled in part by the blockbuster HBO series. Soon, fans will have the chance to dive into the game with its first playable demo available at Steam Nextfest, running now until March 3rd.

*Game of Thrones: Kingsroad* is slated for a mobile release following its initial launch, taking a leaf out of *Once Human*'s book by prioritizing the PC platform. While it's not ideal to be second to mobile, this strategy gives players an early look at how *GoT: Kingsroad* will fare.

For those new to the event, Steam Nextfest is a grand digital showcase of upcoming games, focusing on playable demos. This event allows everyone from big-name publishers to indie developers to give players a first taste of their upcoming titles.

The anticipation for *Game of Thrones: Kingsroad* is mixed with cautious optimism. While some fans of the books and show are wary of the game's approach to gamifying the series, others recognize the challenge in capturing the gritty essence of Game of Thrones, akin to the realism seen in games like *Kingdom Come: Deliverance*.

The decision to launch first on PC offers some reassurance. The PC gaming community is known for its vocal feedback, often providing critical insights that mobile gamers might miss. If *Game of Thrones: Kingsroad* by Netmarble turns out to be underwhelming, the community's hands-on experience with the demo will certainly make it known.
