Rumor: The Finals Dev Reportedly Making Game of Thrones Game
28.04.2024 - 20:37 / gamerant.com / Jackie Arias
The Finals developer Nexon is reportedly working on a new game based on Game of Thrones. Nexon saw a lot of success with the release of The Finals last December, and it seems like the developer is looking to replicate this with the popular book franchise and HBO show.
Game of Thrones has had a number of video game adaptations in the past, but most had mixed reviews from fans and critics. Game of Thrones: A Telltale Games Series showed a lot of promise, but it was canceled after one season when Telltale Games closed (and eventually reopened) in 2018. Meanwhile, one of the highest-rated Game of Thrones titles with an 84% Metacritic score is Reigns: Game of Thrones, which is a strategy game with a swiping mechanic similar to a dating app.
According to a report by Redanian Intelligence, Nexon is reportedly working on a new Game of Thrones MMORPG. The still-untitled project is said to be an online game, which is similar to Diablo Immortal's format. The report also claims that players can choose between male and female characters, which may mean they'll play customized characters and not as one of the original Game of Thrones characters.

Rumored Developer
Nexon
The story of Nexon's Game of Thrones MMORPG is still unknown, but the report states that it will be set in the North, with Winterfell and The Wall as the main settings, and the timeline will be betweenSeasons 4 and 5. It adds that other kingdoms will be featured as well, but there's no information about them yet. Nexon has yet to confirm the existence of the Game of Thrones MMORPG, so fans should take this with a grain of salt for now.
Some Game of Thrones fans seem excited about the idea of a Game of Thrones MMORPG, with one saying that the franchise deserves a The Witcher-style story and gameplay. Meanwhile, others said they're skeptical about the quality of the rumored game, especially with the reputation of MMORPGs being microtransaction-heavy.
Nexon is known for developing the popular MMORPG MapleStory, so it wouldn't be surprising that it would be delving into this genre for the rumored Game of Thrones title. Its vast universe would give the MMORPG a lot of content to pull from, but it might also become too overwhelming in the long run.
Framed as a game show, The Finals is a free-to-play multiplayer shooter that also supports melee combat. Embark's FPS emphasizes destruction along with teamwork.
