If seeing the first trailer for Telltale’s video game take on Game of Thrones a week or so ago had you too excited to wait for the release of the first episode, fear not, you shall not wait much longer at all.

It’s been announced that episode one of the six-part season, titled “Iron from Ice,” will be out this week. Today, in fact, for PC, Mac, and PlayStation 4 players here in the States. Tomorrow sees it released for Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PS4 players in Europe. If you prefer playing on iOS you can get the game Thursday, with a release on PS3 for both the U.S. and Europe coming on December 9th. An Android release date will be announced soon.

To celebrate the release of the first episode a new launch trailer has been released with new peeks at the game not seen in the first trailer. You can watch it below.

Recently we found out some story details regarding Game of Thrones, the upcoming point-and-click video game adaptation of the hit HBO series based on George R.R. Martin’s “A Song of Ice and Fire” book series. The game comes from Telltale Games, the developer behind the mega popular episodic video game take on The Walking Dead.

Of the info we found out, it was revealed that the debut season of Game of Thrones would be six episodes instead of the usual six, and that the first episode titled “Iron From Ice” would be released sometime this year. This of course meant a trailer would be arriving soon, and so it has! The teaser trailer isn’t very long, but does offer the first look at what the game will look like and perhaps a familiar voice and face or two.

You can watch the trailer below.

Now that The Walking Dead video game’s second season and the debut season of The Wolf Among Us have wrapped up, it’s time for Telltale Games’ next pair of games to take over.

Their episodic entry into Gearbox Software’s hugely popular Borderlands franchise, titled Tales from the Borderlands, is on the way, and also the highly anticipated six-part first season of Telltale’s take on Game of Thrones is set to premiere later this year.

A new trailer for Tales from the Borderlands has been released online, and can be seen below.

Some new story details have been revealed for Game of Thrones, the upcoming episodic video game series being developed by Telltale Games, the studio behind the massively popular point-and-click video game adaptation of another megahit TV series based on a popular book or comic, The Walking Dead.

The game will of course be inspired by the work of author George R.R. Martin, just as the HBO series of the same name is, but it will be based more on the world, characters, and events seen in the TV series than the books.

You can read much more about the game and its story below, and also see a pair of promo images.

The Walking Dead
Season 2, Episode 1 – “All That Remains”
Online Game Code
DEVELOPER: Telltale Games
PUBLISHER: Telltale Games
RELEASE DATE: December 17, 2013 (Steam, PS3) l December 18 (Xbox 360, iOS)

Telltale’s The Walking Dead is finally back and I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen to Clementine after the first season’s tragic ending. And now in season 2 you get to play as Clementine and the story really tests her innocence and what she is willing to do to survive. But will the first episode of season 2 live up to it’s incredibly high expectations? Or has it finally gotten old and we have just seen it all before?

The bulk of this story takes place 16 months after the final events of season 1. Clementine ends up with a survivor from season 1 but then gets separated. After that she has to fend for herself until she comes across a new group. The majority of the first episode is her interaction with this untrusting group. A few people in the group accept Clementine and want her to join. While others in the group want to turn her away. There is an interesting group dynamic here this season, but most of it is not revealed in episode 1. You get just enough to know a little about several characters, but not enough to know what has happened to all of them or to know what their goals or intentions are.
