Just in time for the Game of Thrones series debuting on HBO this weekend, GameBanshee managed to score the very first English interview about Cyanide's multi-platform, AGOT-based RPG. And with three exclusive images to boot!
Mic writes: "'Game of Thrones' Season 7 premieres tonight, and you can get in the 'A Song of Ice and Fire' spirit with these PC mods."
Cyanide is developing two games based on the popular A Song of Ice and Fire fantasy series by George R.R. Martin - A Game of Thrones: Genesis is a RTS spanning a thousand years of history, and the Game of Thrones RPG follows stories stories parallel to those told in the books. However, there's more potential in the series than Cyanide is using, and elements from other games could fashion a truly stunning role-playing experience.
a game of thrones rpg would be awesome but it would have to go to the right developers
You basically have Skyrim. Game of Thrones got their inspiration from Skyrim. Skyrim is an amazing game which im looking forward to.
i think he mean the other way
Skyrim got their inspiration from A Song of Ice and Fire
Yeah I know but im talking about the dragons and how they used to be with the dragons, etc
Game of Thrones RPG I am all over that the books are awsome so is the tv show. Now if they would hurry and put the first season on DVD or Blu-Ray thats a purchase for me.
Get HBO Go. It's a great app for you comp or phone. You can see all the episodes there. And not only game of thrones but every other HBO series. Listen to me I sound like the freaking commercial. WTF
Thanks but I would rather watch it on Blu-Ray on a 3D tv and not a small 15 inch laptop screen or an I phone lol
An RPG would work, but I don't think playing as one of the main characters from the book would necessarily work well as the story has already been written. Like the book jumps from POV to POV, it would be interesting to play as different "peon" characters, observing and possibly influencing key events as they unfold from a supportive role. I kind of would enjoy playing as a Nightswatch character, an inconsequential Stark minor lord, perhaps a King's Landing palace guard, or a hedge knight. There's alot of fertile RPG stuff here, I'm just not sure how closely it could follow the story and still be exciting and innovative to play as a lead character since we already know the canon.
Correction to that quote.. gamers are clamoring for a GOOD game of thrones rpg. I'd love it but don't want some half assed simple money cash-in.
George R.R. Martin, writer of the ever popular medieval fantasy "A Song of Ice and Fire" series of books has confirmed on his livejournal that the previously reported A Song of Ice and Fire video game, developed by the Cyanide Studio, is not one, but two games in development at the France-based company.
Sweeping Epic, rich lore, very mature adult fantasy. Fantastic writer. Love his work.
One of my favorite fantasy series! it'll be interesting to see what they do with this! but yes. finish the series first please!
