Developer's Note: Gameplay Improvements and New Field Content

Hello, this is JANG, the Executive Producer of Game of Thrones: Kingsroad.

Even amid the cold of winter, we sincerely thank you for your unwavering passion and continued interest in Westeros.

Based on the many thoughts and suggestions you’ve shared with us, our development team is working to further polish existing content while also preparing new elements that can bring fresh tension and change to your journey. We want to improve the overall gameplay experience so that unexpected moments can unfold even within familiar battles and exploration. We hope these moments will come together to create a richer adventure across Westeros.

In this Developer’s Note, we would like to share key improvements currently in preparation, along with new content that will add a different kind of suspense to your field experience.

Please note that the new content introduced below is still in development. Once it reaches an appropriate level of completion, we will provide the update schedule and full details in a separate notice. We kindly ask for your understanding, as the preparation process may take some time.

⚠️ All information included in this Developer’s Note is under development, and some details may change when the update is officially implemented. Finalized information will be provided through future notices.

🛠️ New Content in Development

1. Avenger

We are currently developing a new content feature, [Avenger], inspired by the “Faceless Men” concept from the original series.

Avengers threaten players with assassin-like combat methods, including ambush attacks with daggers and disruption through poison and hallucinations. Rather than engaging in direct confrontations, they specialize in stealthy approaches and unpredictable attack timing. This is designed to offer a tense experience that differs from existing field combat.

In addition, Avengers may appear not as clearly identifiable enemies in armor, but disguised as ordinary civilians or NPCs encountered during exploration. For example, an NPC who seems to need help may suddenly reveal their true form and attack without warning.

This content is designed to appear naturally during daily quests or regular field gameplay. It will add sudden tension and unexpected variables to adventures that might otherwise feel calm and routine.

Defeating Avengers will grant Braavos Coins, which can be exchanged for various rewards through a dedicated shop.

We invite you to uncover the Avengers hidden across Westeros and enjoy a new style of combat, along with new rewards, through this content.

🛠️ Upcoming Improvements

1. Multiplayer Results Screen Improvements

In this update, we plan to improve the overall results screen experience in multiplayer content so that each player’s contribution and sense of accomplishment can be communicated more clearly.

Previously, results screens for multiplayer content such as the Altar of Memories, Altar of Lost Memories, and World Boss encounters mainly listed contribution values and rewards in a simple format. Going forward, the results presentation will be enhanced so you can more intuitively and impressively see how actively each player contributed to the content.

With the updated results screen, a podium sequence will be added where the top three contributors’ characters appear directly. Their positions on the podium will vary based on their contribution.

Through this change, we hope your performance in multiplayer content will be recognized not only through rewards, but also through visual presentation. We expect this will create another enjoyable moment where you can showcase your character’s appearance and achievements to other players.

1. Cosmetic Collection

To expand the enjoyment of collecting various cosmetic items such as outfits, mounts, and weapon skins, we are preparing a Cosmetic Collection feature.

When you obtain a cosmetic item, it will be automatically registered to the collection. You will be able to view the appearances and related information you have gathered throughout your adventure at a glance. This will make it easier to look back on your collection history and preferences in a more intuitive way.

In addition, to make the process of completing the collection itself feel like a meaningful objective, we plan to provide commemorative rewards tied to collection milestones.

We hope this will allow you to naturally feel a sense of satisfaction in both the journey of collecting and the achievement of completion.

1. Storage Feature

As we have relied solely on the bag-based inventory system for item management, our team recognizes that there are limits to how comfortably items can be managed, even with inventory expansion.

To reduce the inconvenience of item management and provide a more comfortable gameplay environment, we are developing a new Storage system.

A storage keeper NPC will be newly placed in each town, allowing you to store items and retrieve them whenever needed.

You will also be able to expand storage space, enabling you to manage the wide variety of items obtained during your adventure with greater flexibility.

With the introduction of the Storage system, we hope the burden of inventory management during your travels across Westeros will be reduced. We also hope this will allow you to enjoy an even more immersive adventure.

Every piece of feedback you share becomes the driving force that helps Game of Thrones: Kingsroad grow further.

We will continue to move forward alongside you as we build a deeper and more polished gameplay experience.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

JANG

Executive Producer of Game of Thrones: Kingsroad, and the Development Team
