Developer's Note
Hello, this is JANG, the Executive Producer of Game of Thrones: Kingsroad.
Following multiple rounds of testing—including our Closed Beta and participation in Steam Next Fest—we’re excited to finally introduce Game of Thrones: Kingsroad to you through Steam Early Access, ahead of the game’s official launch. Our entire development team has worked passionately to prepare this product, and we’re thrilled to finally share it with you.
Over the course of internal and external tests, we’ve received consistent feedback from players across the world. Based on that input, we’ve made significant improvements and added new content. Key updates include:
- Improvements to co-op play systems (matchmaking, balancing) for a smoother global experience
- Adjustments to open-world mechanics and combat difficulty to better accommodate a wide range of player skill levels
- Localization quality improvements across supported languages
- General bug fixes and functional enhancements
To further strengthen communication with our players, we’ll also be hosting regular live-chat AMA sessions in a dedicated Discord channel exclusively for Early Access participants. We hope this space becomes a valuable place for discussion and feedback.
One of the biggest Early Access benefits will be expanded co-op play content. During past tests, we received a lot of feedback regarding multiplayer experiences, and we agreed with many of those points. That’s why we’ve increased the number of co-op missions compared to previous builds and also added brand-new cooperative content with different gameplay styles.
Many of you also asked for support in additional languages. In response, we’re preparing to support Portuguese and Turkish at the time of official launch, with further language expansions under consideration.
Founder's Packs purchased for Early Access will remain usable after launch. However, please note that some in-game balance adjustments may occur based on Early Access data. If significant balance changes are required, we will provide appropriate compensation when the game officially launches—so rest assured.
During the Early Access period, you’ll be able to explore new regions and content not available in previous tests. This is your chance to get a head start on your adventure through Westeros—discover hidden stories, rare Relics, and uncover secrets before anyone else. We especially encourage you to check out the newly added storyline connected to Roose Bolton.
Thank you once again for your support.
Sincerely,
JANG
Executive Producer, Game of Thrones: Kingsroad
