Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, the mobile RPG from Netmarble, has had its fair share of skepticism since its debut at The Game Awards 2024. As fans of George R.R. Martin’s epic series, many were hoping for a more ambitious, triple-A title.
However, the game, which is primarily a mobile experience, has continued to evolve, and its latest gameplay footage offers a more promising glimpse into what’s to come.
What’s New?
The new gameplay video reveals clear influences from action/adventure games like the Assassin’s Creed series. The player takes on the role of a noble heir, navigating the treacherous political landscape of Westeros.
Lady Olenna even makes an appearance, warning the protagonist of the dangers that lie ahead in the high-stakes game of power between the Houses.
Closed Beta Test Announcement
In addition to the gameplay sneak peek, Netmarble has announced that the Closed Beta Test (CBT) for Game of Thrones Kingsroad will begin on January 16 and run until January 22, available in the United States, Canada, and select European countries.

Is the Game Worth It?
