Telltale’s ‘Game of Thrones: Iron from Ice’ video game trailer is here [Video]

Earlier this week, we unveiled screenshots from what looked to be the upcoming Telltale-created Game of Thrones game. And it was.

The studio has released a trailer based on the TV series and novels, that looks to have all those characters we simply love to hate.

The game will use Telltale’s usual episodic formula, with the first of six episodes dubbed “Iron From Ice”.

While the trailer doesn’t give too much away in terms of storyline, the animation reveals that the TV cast reprise their roles in the game. Lena Headey (who plays Cersei Lannister in the TV series) narrates the video, which introduces the viewer to House Forrester — allies of the Starks (in the books, at least).

Peter Dinklage’s Tyrion Lannister, Natalie Dormer’s Margaery Tyrell, and Iwan Rheon’s Ramsay Snow are also featured in the trailer.

Of course, this being Game of Thrones, everything’s ominous, brooding and teetering on the edge of world destruction. And this is just the first episode.

But don’t take our word for it, watch the trailer below and let us know what you think in the comments.
