Based on the
award-winning HBO television drama series, Game of Thrones: A Telltale Games
Series tells the story of House Forrester. Caught up in the fight for the Iron
Throne, they are placed in a precarious position where members of the household
must do everything they can to prevent the house from meeting its doom.
The fifth episode is available now on PC/Mac from the Telltale Online Store,
Steam, and other digital distribution services, and on PlayStationŽNetwork for
PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 in North America (SCEA) and Europe (SCEE). The

Xbox 360Ž video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and will be coming
to compatible iOS devices via the App Store and to Android-based devices on July

In this penultimate episode, the actions of every Forrester are vital to the
survival of the house. Rodrik's alliance with House Glenmore, and his defiance
of the Whitehills, has drawn the ire of an even greater threat: Ramsay Snow. Far
across the Narrow Sea in Essos, with Meereen now a free city, Asher is close to
securing the army he desperately needs to return home and save his family. In
King's Landing, Mira's activities at Tommen's coronation have not escaped the
attention of Margaery Tyrell, and Cersei has realized that the handmaiden may
prove useful in her political games. Finally, beyond the Wall, Gared's unlikely
allies are reluctant to help in the search for the North Grove... but this far
into the frozen wilds, Crows and Free Folk have a common enemy; and winter is
coming.
"Faced with bloodthirsty pit-fighters, dangers North of the Wall, and equally
perilous political maneuvering in King's Landing, we're putting players in the
most action-packed episode of the season so far ," said Kevin Bruner, CEO and
Co-Founder of Telltale Games. "Extremely difficult choices will fall upon House
Forrester in a cliffhanger ending before the dramatic season finale that's yet
to come."
