A Target itemizing hints at potential Bethesda Game of Thrones venture

First flagged up by user Yutrzenika1 on Reddit, the placeholder web page lacked any additional data moreover the title of “Bethesda: Game of Thrones”. Games have been leaked by way of Target previously, with Shadow of War being the latest instance, however that included a pack shot and a few data on the sport itself. With this web page being all however clean, I’d take this leak with a pinch of salt.

Bethesda does have a historical past with the Game of Thrones collection although, because the studio was approached to adapt the collection earlier than the present grew to become the mega-hit it’s now. The studio needed to flip down the supply as they had been in the course of growing Skyrim, which was too shut in each setting and tone to Game of Thrones. Maybe this recreation is their second likelihood on the licence.

Keep in thoughts that a hearsay was additionally swirling throughout this 12 months’s E3 that claimed that Bethesda was engaged on a fantasy game for a famous franchise. While nothing got here of that hearsay throughout E3, Game of Thrones definitely suits the invoice for a well-known franchise that may require a fantasy recreation.

Bethesda definitely have the expertise of working with massive fantasy worlds, however it might be troublesome to steadiness their typical open world design with the character-focused drama of Game of Thrones. You couldn’t actually have some random warrior popping out of nowhere to grab the Iron Throne, defeat the White Walkers and unite the Seven Kingdoms, as is the case in most fashionable Bethesda RPGs.

In any case, preserve your third eye looking out for any extra data on this mysterious Game of Thrones venture.
