Game of Thrones: War for Westeros puts the fate of the Iron Throne in your hands

During Gamescom 2026's Opening Night Live, PlaySide Studios unveiled Game of Thrones: War for Westeros, an officially licensed real-time strategy game set to release on PC via Steam in early 2027. This trailer offers a glimpse into how players can command House Stark, House Lannister, House Targaryen, or the White Walkers to conquer the Seven Kingdoms, deviating from the show's scripted fate.

Familiar faces such as Jon Snow, Daenerys Targaryen, Robb Stark, Jaime Lannister, Tywin Lannister, and the Night King reappear with unique abilities that can turn the tide of battles. Players must strategize by training units, gathering resources, constructing buildings, and claiming enemy territory to emerge victorious. Each faction boasts distinct armies, buildings, and mechanics reflecting their identities from the series. A beta test is scheduled, with further details to follow later in the year.
