Before the battle for the Iron Throne concludes with the release of the final season of GAME OF THRONES next year, Nerial, Devolver Digital, and HBO have plans to release Reigns: Game of Thrones, an upcoming swipe em' up video game based on the award-winning HBO swords and sorcery series. Set to launch on the App Store, Google Play, and Steam for $3.99 in October, Reigns: Game of Thrones aims to provide fans of the series with a unique gameplay experience all while adding to the lore and longevity of the beloved fantasy property.
Here's the official breakdown for the upcoming title via the game's official press release:
Reigns: Game of Thrones extends beyond the HBO® series and explores possible futures for key characters as seen through the fiery visions of Red Priestess, Melisandre. Players can choose to rule as Cersei Lannister, Jon Snow, Daenerys Targaryen, Tyrion Lannister, Sansa Stark, and more while changing between each king and queen to face challenges and mysteries unique to their story. Melisandre’s flames have proven hard to decipher and less than reliable, so players may encounter stories they do not expect. Peer into the flames and you may see Cersei rebuild the Great Sept of Baelor or discover what could happen to the Seven Kingdoms if Sansa Stark married Jaime Lannister.
Players will choose characters to claim the Iron Throne while carefully navigating the complex relationships and hostile factions of the Seven Kingdoms. Employ ruthless tactics to outwit political rivals, wield impervious charm on your fickle bannerman, and maintain the balance and favor of the people to extend your reign to maybe, one day, survive the horrors of a winter in Westeros. Decide the fate of Seven Kingdoms and those that reside in your land to the soaring score of the HBO series.
