'Game of Thrones' Video Game: Company Behind 'The Walking Dead' Producing RPG for 2014 [VIDEO]
Game of Thrones fans wishing to go further inside the world of the show will get their wish in 2014.
Telltale Games recently recently on Twitter that they are producing a Game of Thrones video game set for release in 2014. The game company confirmed rumors that they were making a Game of Thrones RPG (role-playing game) through their Twitter account Saturday.
"It's TRUE! We're working with @HBO to create an all-new episodic game series based on GAME OF THRONES in 2014! #VGX," Telltale Games tweeted.
Telltale Games is behind the popular The Walking Dead game, which puts the user in the role of a character trying to survive a zombie apocalypse, in which every action made has consequences. Much like The Walking Dead game, the Game of Thrones game will be episodic.
The Walking Dead video game topped several Best of the Year lists when it was released in 2012. The storytelling aspect was praised by such publications as USA Today, so Telltale Games will likely utilize the same storytelling techniques with the Game of Thrones game.
Telltale Games has not announced an official release date for Game of Thrones: The Video Game, but it is expected to come out in 2014.
In the mean time, season 4 of Game of Thrones premieres in spring 2014, though HBO has not yet scheduled a specific premiere date.
