Players are horrified by the demo of \"Game of Thrones: Kingsroad\"

Even before its official announcement, many viewers criticized "Game of Thrones: Kingsroad" for its dated visuals, likening it to a PlayStation 3-era licensed game or a typical mobile title. Despite the initial negativity, some remained optimistic, highlighting the lack of compelling "Game of Thrones" games as a potential saving grace.

Now, thanks to the Steam Next Fest demo, the verdict is in: "Game of Thrones: Kingsroad" is undeniably underwhelming.

Players have largely condemned the game across the board, citing outdated combat mechanics, poor graphics, and numerous design choices that scream "mobile game." Many are calling it a simple port, but even if it's not, the game's aesthetic strongly resembles a title from 2010.

While some positive reviews exist on the Steam page—often echoing sentiments like, "I really enjoyed the demo, looking forward to the full release"—their authenticity is questionable. The possibility of bot reviews or unwavering optimism from the initial hopefuls remains unclear.

"Game of Thrones: Kingsroad" is slated for release on PC (Steam) and mobile devices, though a concrete release date remains unannounced.
