Face the Kraken in first Game of Thrones: Kingsroad update

June 28, 2025 by Gary Collinson

Netmarble has officially launched the first update to its story-driven action adventure RPG Game of Thrones: Kingsroad; entitled ‘The Drowned God Wakes’, it offers players a variety of new content for the mobile game, including:

  • The Crow’s Nest and the surrounding lands are a new area players can explore south of the Stormlands. Stannis Baratheon, brother of Robert Baratheon and claimant to the Iron Throne, is preparing to sail North to answer the call of the Night’s Watch. However, some of the mercenaries he hired to replenish his armies have betrayed their allegiance and have taken the castle of Griffin’s Roost. Unwilling to risk leaving his lands in this vulnerable state, Stannis turns to the player to help break the siege and uncover who is behind these sellsword turncoats.
    • New Quests, Sub-quests, Ruins, Bounties and more will be available in this new area. In addition, a new ferocious beast called the ‘Shadowcat’ stands between players and their journeys across Westeros.
  • Raid is a new content mode where players will encounter the ‘Kraken,’ the first Raid boss that can be found in the north of the Sunset Sea. As depicted in A Song of Ice and Fire novels, this creature is large enough to wrap around even the most formidable ships and drag them down into the dark depths of the sea – most who come face to face with one don’t live long enough to tell the tale. This new mode encourages players to team up and engage the Kraken in combat while onboard a ship. Only through teamwork and mastery of its unique mechanics can players hope to defeat this legendary denizen of the depths.
  • Seasonal Updates have been introduced to the game that include Wormwalk, Beyond the Wall Expeditions, Bounties, Sub-quests, and Events. Look for new activities across all of Westeros as this new game update adds more depth to players’ journey on the Kingsroad.

Game of Thrones: Kingsroad is available to download now on the App Store and Google Play.
