Telltale Games’ Thrones game will feature five playable family members

Telltale Games continues to tease us with tantalizing details about their upcoming Game of Thrones adventure game. Today, senior vice president of publishing Steve Allison revealed that the game will feature five playable characters, all from the same family. This multi-protagonist approach is an expansion on what the company is doing with another of their properties, Tales From the Borderlands.  “In Game of Thrones we’re taking that multi-protagonist design even further with five playable characters from the same family whose choices affect everyone in the family, and that adds a whole new layer to things that we’re really excited about,” he said. Based on the first teaser image, it’s likely that these characters will be from House Forrester, planting the game’s setting firmly in the North. We’re eagerly looking forward to meeting our new “friends” when the game launches later this year.
