About Game of Thrones: War for Westeros
Strategy is an obvious fit for Westeros and has been oddly underused since the television series ended in 2019, with most licensed games heading to mobile. Game of Thrones: War for Westeros is Australian studio PlaySide's attempt at the full-scale version: a real-time strategy game in which you take one of four powers, House Stark, House Lannister, House Targaryen or the Night King's army of the dead, and fight for the continent. There is a solo campaign alongside a multiplayer mode where everyone plays for themselves, with named characters attached to each house.
PlaySide is self-publishing on PC through Steam in early 2027, having moved the game out of 2026 to expand its tactical systems; an exact day has not been named, and a beta is planned beforehand. The studio is best known for smaller licensed work, so the scale is a step up. What to watch is whether the four powers play differently enough to justify the asymmetry, or whether the dead end up a reskin of the living.
