Game of Thrones RPG Dated for Early 2012
With the recent release of Game of Thrones: Genesis, French developer Cyanide has announced that an RPG in the same universe is in development. Based on the HBO series – which in turn is based on George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire novels – the Game of Thrones RPG takes apparent cues from Mass Effect and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic with an increased emphasis on storyline and decisions over action.
Set sometime during the first book, the story follows two original characters, though some established figures and locations from the TV series are being used in the game; some actors will also reprise their respective characters. No publisher has been revealed, though Cyanide aims to release the title early next year.

I’m not a huge fan of the books or show, but I’m actually seeing how the RPG will handle the material.
