Game of Thrones dominated the television landscape for eight years. A fantasy series that felt the whole world captivated. Despite its inglorious end, the author George RR Martin still has millions of fans today.And yet Westeros hardly takes place in the world of video games.
At least not in the form of as some would like it. The best official got game so farAnd was more series than a game itself. Otherwise we know at best license cucumbers, small games, mobile games. After all, there isAt least one offshoot that meets the wishes of the core community.
But Game of Thrones: KingsRoad sounds like the project on paper that fans have been waiting for so long.An open world role-playing game, with great promises: You should be able to freely explore the world, you can visit well-known places like King's landing or winter fur. You determine the appearance of your character completely free and control it or she in dynamic action fights. At the same time, you refine your skills and experience a professionally staged story, on the edge of the events of season 4.
I say, exactly what at least I have dreamed of for a very long time. But two words are sufficient so that a good dose of skepticism mixes among the anticipation:Free2Play and mobile. KingsRoad is also said to appear on Steam for the PC in the second quarter of 2025, but the South Korean development studio is actually completely designed for mobile games.
I used the demo during the Steam Next festival to get a more precise picture of KingsRoad.
At the beginning the curiosity predominates
First of all: Despite my reservations about mobile games, I tried to give KingsRoad an honest chance. AnywaywillI play such a game and the beginning does not make too bad impression.
First I choose between one of three classes, because Kingsroad is literally an action role-playing game. While knights pull into the battle with long swords and crossbows, mercenaries use cutting weapons and arches. Assassins, on the other hand, take two short blades and throw knives. A very classic selection, but at least suitable.
