Even during its initial announcement, many viewers were quick to criticize "Game of Thrones: Kingsroad," likening its appearance to outdated PlayStation 3 era or typical mobile game graphics. However, there were optimists who hoped for a successful outcome, given the scarcity of engaging games based on the iconic series.
With the demo now available as part of the Steam Next Fest event, all debates have been settled—unfortunately, "Game of Thrones: Kingsroad" has been met with harsh criticism. Players have panned nearly every aspect of "Kingsroad," from its outdated combat mechanics and graphics to game design choices that echo mobile gaming. Some have even labeled it a mere port of a mobile game to PC. Even if it's not a direct port, "Kingsroad" feels like a relic from 2010.
Despite the overwhelmingly negative feedback, the demo's Steam page also hosts some positive reviews. These comments, often phrased similarly such as "I really enjoyed the demo, looking forward to the full release," leave us questioning whether they come from bots or the same hopeful fans who still believe in a strong final product.
"Game of Thrones: Kingsroad" is set to launch on PC via Steam and on mobile devices, though an exact release date remains undisclosed.
