Dragonfire Soft Launches in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Philippines

Following the mixed reception of Game of Thrones' eighth season, the franchise seemed to be struggling, particularly in the realm of television. However, the success of the prequel series, House of the Dragon, has reignited enthusiasm for the saga. Capitalizing on this renewed interest, a new mobile game, Game of Thrones: Dragonfire, has entered a soft launch phase in select regions.

Set almost two centuries before the events we're familiar with from Game of Thrones, Dragonfire transports players to the era of the Targaryen dynasty, a period characterized by dragons, political intrigue, betrayal, and epic battles. In this game, you'll have the chance to collect and nurture your own dragons to use in combat against your foes.

Beyond the allure of dragon-rearing, Dragonfire offers strategic gameplay through tile-based battles as you expand your territory, forge alliances, and, if necessary, break them. The game features a meticulously crafted map of Westeros, complete with iconic locations such as the Red Keep and Dragonstone, adding a layer of authenticity and immersion.

With a roster of well-known characters, a setting ripe for strategic gameplay and multiplayer politicking, and a host of iconic locations to battle over, Dragonfire has the potential to be a compelling addition to the franchise.
