A licensed RPG based on the HBO series Game of Thrones will be released in early 2012 for the PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Written under the supervision of George R.R. Martin (whose A Song of Ice and Fire books provide the source material for the TV series), Game of Thrones sees players assume two roles: Mors is a sworn brother of the Night’s Watch, and Alester is a Red Priest in search of redemption.

The game will take players to familiar locations such as The Wall and King’s Landing. They will also meet characters such as Varys the Spider, Queen Cersei and Jeor Mormont, the Lord Commander of the Night's Watch.

Players are able to determine the class of each character and their fighting style.

Game of Thrones is being developed by Cyanide using Unreal Engine 3.
