[Update] Not only is Reigns: Game of Thrones actually happening, it's available to pre-order right now

Okay, I can get through this news without losing my head. I mean, I love Game of Thrones and Reigns is one of my favourite mobile games on the market, but I'm a professional and OH MY GOD IT'S SO EXCITING.

Phew, that's better. Yep, earlier this week Devolver Digital teased us with a map of Westeros and today it came to light that this is actually happening. We don't have to wait two years for it, not even until the final season premiers, no we're getting it in October.

Claim the Iron Throne as a host of familiar characters, from Cersei Lannister, through Sansa Stark, Jon Snow, and more. Between each king or queen you'll unlock unique challenges and trials for their own personal stories.

It'll be interesting to see where the arcs begin and end (because if I see Drogo I'm going to cryyyy) if there are pathways true to the current story. Though, from the App Store description it looks like there'll be plenty of alternatives to keep us on our toes.

In typical Reigns fashion you need to swipe left or right to determine the fate of the Seven Kingdoms, take part in brutal mini games, and enjoy what's shaping up to be the richest and most detailed entry yet.

Reigns: Game of Thrones arrives on iOS and Android on October 18th, and you can pre-order it on the App Store for £3.99/$3.99 and pre-register on Google Play.
