However, we will certainly have to wait before having more information on the game.

3️⃣ In parallel with its work on Seven Deadly Sins Origins, Netmarble announces, during its press event, that it is working on a Game of Thrones MMORPG. Netmarble wants to make this title a small revolution in mobile games: developed under Unreal Engine 5, Game of Thrones mobile intends to offer graphics close to those of next-gen consoles and best mix the depth of the usual single-player experience with the incredible scale of multiplayer worlds.

In the manner of Dauntless, this fantastic hunting title on mobile offers you, alone or in groups of 4 to 8 players, to go on an expedition to shoot down impressive creatures on islands floating in the void.

Witch’s Castle focuses on a hybrid gameplay between puzzle, explosions and room decoration (probably a kind of match 3 with points spending phases). For its part, Project B positions itself as a multiplayer 3D action casual mobile game featuring aggressive combat with unique cookie skills.
