The new game based on the HBO series, Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, has launched today in early access on Steam, allowing players to dive into the intricate world of Westeros for a cost, while free-to-play options will be available later. While originally set to launch earlier, the release was slightly delayed due to unexpected issues, with new gameplay elements highlighted in the trailer featuring characters like Jon Snow, Cersei Lannister, and Jaime Lannister among others.

The game aims to capture the essence of the beloved series, though some gamers have reported mixed feelings regarding the generic RPG behaviors observed in the preview versions. Early feedback from testers highlights solid graphics and a satisfying combat system, continuing to intrigue those familiar with the franchise. As the game transitions into free-to-play, early access packs are being sold for anywhere between $25 and $90.
