Telltale 'Game Of Thrones' Game: 'Destiny' Writer Leaves Bungie To Work On Story Driven Game To Take Place Simultaneously With Book And Show Plot-line [VIDEO]

Telltale Games is working on a "Game of Thrones" Game. If that is to many games for one sentence, well, buckle in.

The most recent news from the project is that after two years working on Bungie's Destiny, writer Joshua Rubin is departing the studio to work on Telltale Games' upcoming Game of Thrones project.

"It's a privilege to be working on Telltale's Game of Thrones," Rubin said via Twitter. "I am such a massive fan of the HBO show!"

"[David] Benioff and [D.B.] Weiss have set an incredibly high standard for writing," Rubin said. "I'm inspired by their work every season. I'm gonna have to up my game!"

Telltale confirmed development on the "Game of Thrones" Game this past December. The game will not be a prequel, but rather run parallel to the events of the books/ show.

Not much else is known about the game, in fact almost a disturbingly small amount considering the mountains of buzz every tiny detail of "Game of Thrones" gets on the internet.

HBO did announce it would be a "multi-year, multi-title partnership between Telltale and HBO Global Licensing, targeted to premiere digitally in 2014 with an episodic game series for home consoles, PC/Mac, and mobile devices. Specific platform details are yet to be announced."

According to Dan Connors, the Telltale CEO, fans might see characters such as King Joffrey in the game.Telltale is working with George R.R. Martin's assistant, Ty Corey Franck. Connors states that storytelling will be the main focus of this game and that the studio is putting it above all the other aspects.

That is all currently known about the "Game of Thrones" game from Telltale. Check back for more information as we get closer to the release date, whenever that may be.
