Game of Thrones: Kingsroad: Enter a New Chapter in Westeros
Game of Thrones: Kingsroad is finally available worldwide (except Asia) on mobile and PC platforms. Developed by Netmarble and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment for HBO, this action-RPG offers players the chance to carve their path through an original story set in the world of Westeros.
Choose Your Class, Forge Your Legend
Players begin as the sole heir of House Tyre, picking one of three combat classes: the defense-heavy Knight, the balanced Sellsword, or the stealth-focused Assassin. Each class has unique skills and customization options that allow players to tailor their character’s look and combat style.
Explore Westeros With Familiar Faces
From King’s Landing to Castle Black, and now Storm’s End and Felwood with Chapter 3, Kingsroad’s open-world map is packed with iconic locations and fresh regions. Along the way, players meet legendary characters like Jaime Lannister, Cersei, Varys, and Stannis Baratheon, helping to build alliances and influence power.
Face Off Against Legendary Creatures
The game also introduces fearsome boss battles. Drogon features as a Field Boss, while other creatures like Ice Spiders, Red Cockatrice, and the new Stormhorn Unicorn test your strategy and build. Chapter 3’s addition of the Unicorn in the Altar of Memories brings even more challenge to the table.
Grinding, Monetization, and Gameplay Balance
While the story and setting draw players in, many users have raised concerns about grind-heavy mechanics and microtransaction pressure. With Momentum requirements gating story progress and fast travel, healing, and revives all tied to in-game currency, the free-to-play structure often pushes players toward spending money to save time.
Despite these concerns, Kingsroad offers hundreds of hours of content across narrative quests, combat, and platforming puzzles. With more updates expected and the Asia release coming later, the game is still evolving.
Platforms and Availability
Game of Thrones: Kingsroad is now available on iOS, Android, Steam, Epic Games Store, and the Windows Launcher across North America, Europe, Oceania, the Middle East, and Africa. A launch in Asia is expected later in 2025.
Final Thoughts
If you’re a fan of Game of Thrones, Kingsroad offers an authentic narrative, immersive exploration, and familiar faces from the franchise. However, be prepared for a grindy progression system with pay-to-skip features that may affect your overall enjoyment.
