Game of Thrones: Kingsroad is coming to PC and mobiles on the same day, marking a significant departure from its predecessors.
The world of Westeros is now open for players to explore and enjoy while completing thrilling quests.
The official release of the game is scheduled on May 21, 2025. However, some regions may face some exceptions.
The world of Westeros is expanding once again. This time, it’s not restricted to HBO, but this expansion will allow players to participate in the events actively. Created by South Korean studio NetmarbleGame and licensed by Warner Bros., Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, an open-world RPG, takes players on a thrilling adventure to Westeros.
The story of the game takes place between the third and fourth seasons of the iconic HBO series and takes players on a journey to explore the lore and landscape of the Seven Kingdoms more elaborately. Currently the game is in early access, with the official release date scheduled for May 21, 2025, on PC and mobile devices.
The most unique part of Game of Thrones: Kingsroad is that it’s set to change the concept of mobile RPGs. Previously, none of the Game of Thrones games were released on mobile. Though a few GoT titles are on mobile, they aren’t specifically impressive. The release of Game of Thrones: Kingsroad is going to change this concept by offering an engaging action RPG set in a huge open world, developed in Unreal Engine 5.
For now, this game is accessible through Steam, but on May 21, 2025, it will release globally, and players can access it using Steam, the Epic Games Store, Windows Launcher, and on mobiles through the App Store and Google Play Store.

Fortunately, this game is a free-to-play one that players can grind without spending anything. However, hardcore GoT fans can purchase the Founder's Packs, which will grant them both early access to the full game and exclusive in-game items.
These packs come at different price points. For instance, Standard Packs will cost players US$24.99. Players who want the Deluxe Pack have to spend US$49.99. For those who are willing to get the Ultimate Pack, it costs US$89.99. Each of these packs offers a diverse range of bonuses, including exclusive outfits, in-game currency, and more.
Here players should note one thing. On May 21, most of the countries across the globe will get the game. However, some will face delays due to localization efforts. So, players in those regions have to wait a little longer than others.
Next comes the gameplay and in-game world of Game of Thrones: Kingsroad. The in-game world will offer players a rich and detailed portrayal of the world of Westeros. NetmarbleGame has used Unreal Engine 5 to create stunning in-game visuals and expansive environments.
As the gameplay begins, players will assume the role of a member of the House of Tyre. As the gameplay progresses, players will navigate through political intrigues, make allies, and battle formidable enemies. The vast open world of the game will allow players to explore the iconic locations like King's Landing, Winterfell, and Highgarden.

Additionally, players can use mounts to navigate through the world or complete quests. Exploring the world will enable players to get crafting materials, treasure chests, and world bosses to progress through the storyline.
Coming to the combat system of the game, Kingsroad features three different classes. Players can choose between a knight, a sellsword, or an assassin to progress. Each of these classes offers unique skills and play styles that suit different skill sets of players. Moreover, players can either go for single-player battles or they can choose online multiplayer.
Game of Thrones: Kingsroad is going to be a significant addition to the franchise. Departing from its predecessors, this game is going to offer players an opportunity to actively participate in the activities within the world of Westeros to determine its future.
As the official release date is coming closer, players can look forward to getting an expansive open-world experience that comes along with rich storytelling and dynamic gameplay mechanics. The game has faced criticisms during the early access period for its monetization policies, which the developer team has promised to improve in the final version. So, get prepared to jump into the world of Westeros on May 21.
