📱 Mobile, Multi-platformA New Game Of Thrones Game Is Out Today On Mobile
Warner Bros. Games and HBO have released a new Game of Thrones game. Game of Thrones: Dragonfire is a free-to-play mobile game based on the prequel series House of the Dragon. A strategy game set 172 years before Daenerys Targaryen was born, Dragonfire is developed by Warner Bros. Games Boston and takes inspiration from events from the TV series. You play as a Valyrian descendant who has to hatch, raise, and fly dragons in battle to dominate Westeros. The game features familiar characters from the show--including Rhaenyra Targaryen and Alicent Hightower--as well as original characters created for the game, and like the show, players need to strategize and form alliances to come out on top. Check out a new "Let's Play" video for the game below, featuring Lord Corlys Velaryon actor Steve Toussaint. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5LMBhIUJ4w Dragonfire lets players journey through "campaigns," which are described as "epic scenarios" that last around eight weeks, with different objectives and story moments in each. Each stage of a campaign only lasts for a set time, so players are driven to stay engaged. Each campaign has specific goals that players can strive for to get more powerful dragons to help in future, more challenging campaigns. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7SI4Dzxeg You can read more about Dragonfire on its website(https://gotdragonfire.com/news). It's just the latest Game of Thrones game for mobile, following Game of Thrones: Conquest. “We’re thrilled to bring Game of Thrones: Dragonfire to mobile players with an immersive strategy experience that is very authentic to House of the Dragon,” said JB Perrette, CEO and President, Global Streaming and Games, Warner Bros. Discovery. “Our Warner Bros. Boston team did an amazing job creating a game true to the Game of Thrones world for fans, inviting them to build their legacy, forge alliances, and define their own battle for Westeros.” Game of Thrones is one of four major pillars that WB Games is focusing on going forward(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/batman-game-publisher-undergoes-major-shakeup/1100-6532546/), the others behind DC, Harry Potter, and Mortal Kombat. WB Games parent company Warner Bros. Discovery has entered into a deal to be acquired by Paramount(https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/netflix-could-own-all-these-warner-bros-game-studios-soon/2900-7310/), and the acquisition is said to close this year. It remains to be seen what changes, if any, are planned for WB Games as a result of the buyout.

📱 Mobile, Multi-platformWitcher Dev’s Mysterious New Game With Saudi Arabia’s Scopely Is Not Releasing Soon
The Witcher developer CD Projekt Red is collaborating with Saudi Arabia-owned game developer Scopely for a new mobile game, but it's not releasing soon. During CD Projekt's latest earnings briefing(https://www.cdprojekt.com/en/wp-content/uploads-en/2026/05/transcript-q12026-earnings.pdf), joint-CEO Michał Nowakowski was asked for an update on how the mysterious project--which is a game based on a CD Projekt franchise--is coming together. The executive said the game is "definitely not" coming out this year. Nowakowski said the nature of game development is ongoing iteration, and this takes time. "We've been previously suggesting that this would take some time. Scopely and their team are very iterative, and they work very fast and very hard, but it’s more about iteration and reaching a certain level of satisfaction that is felt on both side--them and us--so things are happening, but, once again, it’s definitely not a story for 2026." !(https://www.gamespot.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Screenshot-2026-05-29-at-2.29.28-PM.png?w=1024) CD Projekt announced its partnership with Scopely in March 2025(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/witcher-dev-partners-with-pokemon-go-owner-for-a-new-game-based-on-its-ip/1100-6530370/), saying at the time that the game was based on one of CD Projekt’s franchises. This came after CD Projekt said it was considering a Cyberpunk mobile game.(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/cyberpunk-2077-and-witcher-mobile-games-could-come-in-the-future-cd-projekt-says/1100-6522276/) Saudi Arabia's Savvy Games bought Scopely in 2023 for $4.9 billion–that is the No. 8 biggest gaming acquisition of all time(https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/top-10-most-expensive-video-game-buyouts-of-all-time/2900-4718/1). Scopely is one of the biggest mobile game companies on the planet. The company reached a new stratosphere of success with Monopoly Go. Scopely also now owns Pokemon Go. In 2024, CD Projekt said it was considering the possibility of making The Witcher and/or Cyberpunk mobile games.(https://www.gamespot.com/articles/cyberpunk-2077-and-witcher-mobile-games-could-come-in-the-future-cd-projekt-says/1100-6522276/) The company does have experience with the mobile market, as Gwent: The Witcher Card Game(https://www.gamespot.com/games/gwent-the-witcher-card-game/) received mobile ports, though support for the title ended in October 2023. Another Witcher mobile game, the Pokemon Go-inspired The Witcher: Monster Slayer(https://www.gamespot.com/games/the-witcher-monster-slayer/), released in July 2021 but shut down nearly two years later in 2023.

📱 Mobile, Multi-platformWarhammer 40,000: Boltgun Boom Comes To Mobile This Year, Boltgun 2 Demo Out Now On PC
Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun is a fantastic, action-packed take on the sci-fi series, delivering a throwback boomer-shooter experience that feels like it was ripped out of the '90s. If you're looking to spend even more of your time destroying enemies of the Emperor, you'll be happy to know that a mobile spin-off--Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun Boom--will be hitting mobile devices this year. Announced during Warhammer Skulls 2026, Boltgun Boom is being developed by Nitro Games, and it's described as a "premium retro FPS featuring different chapters of the Boltgun series." The teaser video makes it look pretty much indistinguishable from its console and PC siblings, which shouldn't come as a huge surprise given the '90s-era aesthetic. You can pre-register on both iOS and Android as we approach the game's release later in 2026. But that's not all Boltgun fans can get excited about. The demo for Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 is available right now on Steam, with the full game also coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. You can try out two levels in the demo, which features multiple playable characters this time: Malum Caedo, who plays similarly to the first game, and the more agile Nyra Veyrath.

📱 Mobile, Multi-platformNintendo announces new WarioWare-like Pictonico!
Nintendo's upcoming Pictonico! is for people into offbeat games like WarioWare or Tomadachi Life
Pictonico Is Nintendo’s New Mobile Game That Turns Your Photos Into Silly Minigames
!Game Informer News(https://www.gameinformer.com/sites/default/files/styles/bodydefault/public/2026/05/19/7e6d7710/pictonicotrailer2.jpg.webp) Nintendo has revealed Pictonico, a new mobile game launching next week. The party game takes existing photos from your phone or tablet and turns them into WarioWare-esque minigames. The reveal trailer shows examples such as turning a portrait into a corn-eating minigame where you move the subject’s mouth to chomp on food, or pulling down crabs pinching someone’s face. “Rediscover old photos of loved ones and see them in a whole new light as they navigate everything from zombie attacks, quirky costume changes, carnival challenges and more,” reads Nintendo’s press release. Pictonico also offers a Score Attack mode, a board-game-style stage-clearing challenge, and even a fortune-telling feature. The game features 80 minigames and is “free-to-start”, Nintendo’s terminology for free-to-play. This means you can download and play Pictonico for free, but a disclaimer notes that "Purchase of a game volume is required for gameplay, but you can play a demo of some minigames for free." According to the game's FAQ,(https://faq.f.nintendo.com/hc/en-us/categories/55690807568409-About-the-App) the "free" version is actually a demo with access to only three games. Players must purchase "game volumes", basically packs that include an unknown number of minigames, to gain full access to content. Nintendo has yet to confirm how much a game volume will cost or how many will be for sale. Pictonico launches on May 28 for iOS and Android, and players can pre-register starting today.
📱 Mobile, Multi-platformNintendo Announces New Mobile Game That Turns Your Selfies Into Minigames
Nintendo has a new mobile game on the way, which will turn your selfies into quirky WarioWare-esque minigames. The game is called Pictonico!(https://www.gamespot.com/games/pictonico/), and will release on May 28 for Android and iPhone. Pictonico! was co-developed by Intelligent Systems, the studio behind the WarioWare series(https://www.gamespot.com/games/warioware-get-it-together/) of games, and that influence is clear from the minigames Nintendo has teased so far. The main difference is that Pictonico’s minigames pull faces from your photos, warping real people into its absurd minigames. When setting up the game, you can either snap a photo in the moment or pull an existing picture from your gallery--meaning friends, family, or even your favorite celebrities could be subjected to the indignity of starring in a WarioWare-style game.
