Blueprint Gaming
Tere is undoubtedly greater scrutiny, but that tends to sharpen focus rather than restrict it. High-profile IP demands precision. Every design decision carries more weight, and that naturally elevates internal standards. At the same time, working with source material of this richness is creatively motivating.
By alternating between Game of Trones and House of the Dragon releases, we can explore different tonal styles and feature emphases while maintaining a consistent mechanical backbone. Te aim is to create depth for those invested in the universe, without building barriers for players who are primarily motivated by gameplay.
With multiple Game of Trones and House of the Dragon titles planned, are you building a connected universe across releases or treating each as a standalone chapter?
It’s a structured series approach rather than isolated launches. Each title will stand on its own commercially and mechanically. Tat said, we’re still very early in the development phase, so there’s many details that are yet to be confirmed and a whole world of opportunity that both brands offer us as a studio. What I can say is that the entire development team is genuinely excited to be creating the broader Blueprint interpretation of Westeros.
When adapting such a globally scrutinised brand, is there greater creative pressure?
Tere is undoubtedly greater scrutiny, but that tends to sharpen focus rather than restrict it. High-profile IP demands precision. Every design decision carries more weight, and that naturally elevates internal standards. At the same time, working with source material of this richness is creatively motivating. Te universe already contains layered characters, political tension and escalating conflict - elements that translate well into slot mechanics when handled carefully. It becomes less about intimidation and more about responsibility.

Looking back at Blueprint’s track record with licensed content, what lessons have proven most valuable when embarking on Game of Trones?
Te most important lesson is discipline. It can be tempting to overcomplicate a licensed product in an effort to reflect every aspect of the IP. Our experience has shown that restraint often delivers stronger long-term performance. Start with a proven gameplay core, integrate the brand meaningfully, and avoid allowing visual spectacle to overshadow functionality.
We’ve also learned the value of roadmap planning. Strong IP performs best when treated as a series with sustained operator support, not a single headline release. Tose principles are central to our Game of Trones strategy.
If players look back at this series in five years’ time, what would you hope its legacy will be within both Blueprint’s portfolio and the wider industry?
Te ambition is for it to be viewed as a benchmark for long- term IP execution. Not simply a successful launch, but a cohesive series that demonstrated how to balance authenticity, mechanical depth and commercial sustainability.
If, in five years, it is regarded as one of the defining licensed portfolios within our catalogue - and as an example of how to handle premium entertainment IP within iGaming - that would represent success. Ultimately, legacy is built on consistency rather than spectacle. Tat’s the standard we’re aiming for.
