Game of Thrones Kingsroad Launches May 21

Netmarble's highly anticipated game, Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, is set to launch as a free-to-play title on May 21, available on PC, Epic Games Store, Windows Launcher, and mobile devices via Android or iOS, except in Asia where it will be released later this year.

The game's developers have introduced several fixes and improvements based on community feedback, including reducing the frequency of field boss spawns to allow for more group play, adding Portuguese and Turkish language support, and providing additional rewards for early access players. The team is also working on increasing the daily RP supply, adding new content, and exploring Westeros, including the upcoming Stormlands region.

Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, a free-to-play action-RPG, takes players on a journey through the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros, allowing them to explore familiar locations from the HBO series. The game features classes, co-op, and series characters, aiming to bring the entirety of Westeros to life with detail and authenticity. However, it has received criticism for its monetization, with players calling it "greedy" and citing microtransactions and paid progression.

Netmarble has addressed concerns, stating that the game is designed for single-player gameplay and has worked to minimize progression imbalances. The company has apologized for past communication and promises more frequent and transparent updates. A premium Founder's Pack is available, offering early access and exclusive in-game content, with mobile players able to pre-register ahead of the launch.

With its launch on May 21, Game of Thrones: Kingsroad is expected to attract a large player base, and the developers' commitment to community feedback and transparency will be crucial in addressing concerns and providing a enjoyable gaming experience for players.
