Games of Thrones confirmed by Telltale Games

Telltale Games has confirmed rumors that it is working on an episodic adventure series for Game of Thrones.

A teaser trailer for the adaptation was played during this year's Spike VGX awards. The theme to HBO's TV version of the show was played, and the HBO logo was also displayed. While the TV series looks to be the main inspiration behind the game, Telltale says it will be "taking advantage of all the fiction" for its adaptation.

No details were given about what characters or locations would be featured. A 2014 date was shown in a teaser trailer. Telltale would not confirm whether it would be featuring the series' voice actors or likenesses in the game.

The game will be similar to Telltale's previous adventure games, but big battles--a key part of the source material--were hinted at.

Alongside Game of Thrones, Telltale is also working on a second season of The Walking Dead, A Wolf Among Us, and the just-announced Tales from the Borderlands.
