The world of Game of Thrones continues to expand, and this time it's not another spin-off TV show (although, don't worry, there are still plenty of those on the way).
Instead, Warner Bros Interactive and PlaySide Studios have teamed up to bring fans a new PC real-time strategy game set in George RR Martin's fictional world, titled Game of Thrones: War for Westeros.
The game was announced at Summer Game Fest on Friday 6th June in Los Angeles, where it was teased that the game would draw "inspiration" from Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire novels, and that it would be released in 2026.
The synopsis for the game says: "In War for Westeros, players will lead the armies of House Stark, House Lannister, House Targaryen, or the Night King in ruthless free-for-all battles where trust is fleeting and power is everything. Engaging in epic real-time strategy battles, forging strategic alliances, and weaving deceit against rival forces will be key.
"Each faction offers deeply asymmetric strategies, with signature heroes, armies, and mechanics forged from the brutal legacy of Westeros. Players can deploy infantry, cavalry, siege engines, giants, and dragons to break enemy lines as they work to outplay and outmanoeuvre rivals with inspiring hero abilities and the ruthless instincts of a true war commander."
