With Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, Netmarble is bringing a new chapter to the world of Westeros – this time as an action-packed mobile game. But can the game live up to its expectations? The last season of the legendary series famously failed to do so.
The game, called Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, was unveiled at the G-Star 2024 gaming expo in Busan, Korea.
The trailer looks incredibly promising, even if some of you probably weren't hoping for a mobile game. Players are immediately immersed in the icy landscapes beyond the Wall, encountering familiar faces from the series.

Battles against giants and White Walkers dominate the action, as players join the Night's Watch and fight alongside Jon Snow. The trailer impresses with fluid animations and an intense third-person combat style.
