House Forrester is the center of Telltale Games' upcoming Game of Throne series

Developer Telltale Games has finally offered some concrete details about their upcoming six part episodic Adventure series based on the Game of Thrones TV show from HBO, including word that the storyline will center on House Forrester, which is part of the George R.R. Martin A Song of Ice and Fire novels but have yet to be depicted in the TV series. The game will be released for the Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC, among other platforms.

Telltale says their game will begin toward the end of the third season of Game of Thrones and end just before the start of the fifth season. The player will control five characters that are a part of House Forrester during the course of the six episode game series. Telltale adds:

House Forrester is a noble house from the Wolfswood in the north of Westeros. Bannermen to House Glover, they have always offered unswerving loyalty to the ruling great house of the North – the Starks. The Forresters are seated at Ironrath, an imposing stronghold surrounded by towering ironwood trees. Built over fifteen hundred years ago by Cedric Forrester and his triplet sons, Ironrath is a testament to the strength and endurance of Ironwood. The Forrester house words are 'Iron from Ice', which echoes their belief that - like the ironwood itself - the adverse conditions and unforgiving landscape of the North only makes them stronger.

The first episode, Iron from Ice, will be released before the end of 2014. Do you plan to download and play all six episodes?
