A Game Of Thrones – Genesis

Cyanide Studios released the first information and screenshots for its upcoming real-time strategy game based in the universe of the popular A Song of Ice & Fire series by George R.R. Martin.

A Game Of Thrones – Genesis promises a single-player campaign written under the supervision of Martin that spans the 1,000 years of history leading up to the events of the books and upcoming HBO series. Players will partake in the events that shaped the kingdom of Westeros, including Aegon the Conqueror's invasion, the War of the Usurper that wins Robert Baratheon the throne, Nymeria's arrival in the kingdom of Dorne, and the awakening of the Others beyond the Wall.

Staying true to the spirit of the books, brute force isn't your only option for claiming the Iron Throne. You can also strangle opponents economically or undermine their power through treachery and diplomacy.

A Game of Thrones is slated for a summer release.
