A new videogame based on the massively popular fantasy novel and TV series Game of Thrones is on its way to Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.
Created by Atlus and Cyanide Studio, the action role-playing game will be released early next year and will aim to recreate the dramatic and gritty fantasy world of author George RR Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series.
Playing as one of two original characters, players will immerse themselves in the medieval world of Westeros, engaging in slick slow-motion fights, making destiny-changing choices and interacting with familiar characters.
The game is being developed under the supervision of Martin himself, while the likenesses of many actors from the series will be featured.
James Costos from TV network HBO said: "This is a wonderful way for fans to engage with the brand in an exciting and interactive way."
Developer Cyanide was responsible for creating the recent strategy title A Game of Thrones: Genesis, as well as fantasy-themed titles such as Blood Bowl and Of Orcs and Men.
