Exciting news for fans of the epic fantasy series Game of Thrones! During the Summer Game Fest 2025, Australian developer PlaySide Studios and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment unveiled a brand-new real-time strategy (RTS) game titled Game of Thrones: War for Westeros. Set in the iconic world of Westeros, this game promises to deliver a thrilling experience for both fans of the HBO series and RTS enthusiasts.
Scheduled for a 2026 release on PC via Steam, War for Westeros is described as a classic, premium RTS game. Players will have the opportunity to take command of one of the legendary Great Houses—such as Stark, Targaryen, or Lannister—or even lead the sinister forces of the Night King. The ultimate goal? To conquer the Seven Kingdoms and claim the coveted Iron Throne.
The game offers both a gripping single-player campaign and intense multiplayer modes, including treacherous free-for-all battles. Each faction comes with unique heroes, armies, and mechanics, allowing players to strategize with ground troops, cavalry, siege engines, giants, and even dragons to dominate their enemies.
A cinematic trailer showcased during the announcement highlighted the brutal and epic battles fans can expect. Players will have the power to rewrite the fate of Westeros, making critical decisions that could change the course of history in this beloved fantasy realm.
PlaySide Studios, known for their innovative approach to game development, aims to capture the essence of George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire series while delivering a strategic depth that RTS fans crave. This collaboration with Warner Bros. ensures an authentic representation of the Game of Thrones universe.
