Exciting news for fans of the Seven Kingdoms! PlaySide Studios has announced a delay in the release of their highly anticipated real-time strategy game, Game of Thrones: War for Westeros. Initially slated for 2026, the game will now hit the shelves in early 2027.

In a recent blog post, the studio shared that this extra time is essential for refining the game and reaching the quality levels they aspire to. They expressed their commitment to delivering an experience that resonates with both RTS enthusiasts and die-hard Game of Thrones fans alike.

PlaySide also took the opportunity to thank players for their patience, acknowledging that the wait has been lengthy. They emphasized that they truly appreciate the support from the community during this development phase.

The blog post teased some exciting updates on the game’s progress, hinting at skirmishes across various regions of the iconic Westeros, including notable locations such as King’s Landing, The Wall, and Ashemark.
