Telltale has released the trailer for Sons of Winter, the next episode in its Game of Thrones series.
ARK: Survival Evolved Release Date Locked In, Free Item Offered To The Stomping Land Owners
Sons of Winter will be episode four of the eventual six that will make up the first season of releases. Telltale also announced release dates for each platform: Sons of Winter will arrive on PC, Mac and PlayStation 4 on May 26, Xbox on May 27, and on mobile devices May 28.
The trailer, below, previews the events to come involving all the members of House Forrester. It contains mild spoilers, which I would argue are much worse for those who have played the previous episodes. If you're sensitive to finding out what's ahead, you may want to skip the trailer. For those who haven't played at all yet, the scenes are a mix of characters, names, and events that won't really mean much to you--feel free to watch if you're curious.

Telltale has made a name for itself adapting existing properties into new narrative-driven adventures. Players user point and click gameplay and multiple dialogue options to decide the outcome of the story, a formula Telltale has used successfully in its The Walking Dead, Tales from the Borderlands, The Wolf Among Us, and more. It has a planned Minecraft title coming up, as well.
Telltale's Game of Thrones series tells the story of House Forrester, a family mentioned briefly in the A Song of Ice and Fire books but not featured in the story in the novels or HBO's show. The games tell an original story created by Telltale, but one that occurs alongside the events of the show and occasionally intertwines with its famous characters.
