Rumour – Telltale is making a Game of Thrones game

winter is coming

Put your dragons away and cover up folks, because here’s one rumour that might just make your Friday that little bit more awesome.

According to sources at IGN, Telltale will be adapting the George R.R Martin created tale for the even smaller screen. Whether Telltale will be getting some floppy wiener inspiration from the popular HBO series or the actual A Song of Fire and Ice books is unclear at this point.

A while back, Telltale co-founder Dan Connors mentioned that the studio had gotten their hands on a dream property to create games around. And judging by the fact that Telltale Games has been working some licensed magic over the last couple of years, this doesn’t sound too far-fetched.

You won’t hear them admitting that they’re working on such a game yet though, as Telltale Senior VP of Publishing Steve Allison said that “We get these sorts of rumors about what we could be working on next cropping up all the time. Officially we have no comment.”

Game of Thrones has been adapted into several other games recently. But it could be time for the show to get turned into a good game for once.

        I personally think the books were better, but maybe its just cause I like fantasy novels.

        They show make Malazan Book of the Fallen.into a TV series, it would be way more epic but maybe that’s just me

          The problem with doing that is Malazan Book of the Fallen has a really messed up timeline.
          If they made it into a TV series it’d confuse a lot of people.

            Have you read it? yes there is a lot of messed up timelines :p, it only really comes together round about book 8-10 , then everything starts making sense. was still an epic read though

            I stopped reading part way through at Reaper’s Gale or Toll the Hounds.
            I think I’ve got the fill series, so I just need to get around to finishing them.

            My books backlog is nearly 4 times the size of my games backlog.

          I’m on book 4 of that now, finding it a touch dull but will persevere. I enjoyed the 1st 3.

            Middle books get a bit confusing as the timeline jumps around a bit but it all comes together, I promise. Dat last book , one of my top 5 of all time for me

    But don’t most games base on movies or TV series fail? Yes I know it was originally a series of books, but it will most likely be base off of the TV series as most people identify with it.

      I think the key is not to make it follow the same path as the books or series, it just needs to be set in the same universe, so it can tell a different story

      They should actually brand it to the name of the series instead of just the 1st book… That way people will assume it is a “new” IP and not expect it to be the same

          I meant that they should move away from the Game of Thrones fad and make a game that fits into the lore of the series instead of just the books/TV series. And then call it A Song of Ice and Fire.

    If they could do what CD did with the witcher then it would be epic.

      Yes yes yes, give it to CD, but they busy with cyberpunk 2077 and I want them to just concentrate on that, I’m dripping for that game

    Oh hell yeah! I love Telltale’s Walking Dead – amazing storyline! And A Wolf Among Us is great so far. So I would love them to get their hands on the Game of Thrones franchise… Would be shweeeeeet! 🙂

    The Crusader Kings II Game of Thrones mod is a pretty fun way to get into that universe. Better than any of the actual games that have been made thus far. I hope they get this one right. I always have time for a well crafted universe (even if the characters who avoid dying are often lacklustre and uninspiring).

    I wonder if this is going to be like Telltale’s Jurassic Park?
