Game of Thrones Kingsroad Devs Promise Big Fixes
Game of Thrones: Kingsroad has received a new developer note addressing several major concerns from players after launch.
The development team released Developer Note #2 to explain current issues and upcoming changes.
The note covers chat problems, bag space, molten iron progression, RP energy limits, payment structure concerns, Battle Pass EXP pack refunds, and bug fixes.
Most of the key improvements are planned for May 21, 2026.
1. Chat will get stronger moderation
One major issue involves the in-game chat system.
Players reported spam, advertisements, and disruptive messages after launch.
The development team admitted that these problems should have been addressed before release.
On May 21, the team plans to improve language filtering, restrict chat access based on player level, and fix message cooldown issues.
The developers also said chat is not just a game feature.
It is a shared community space where players meet and interact.
2. Bag space will be improved
Another major complaint involves limited bag space.
Players often needed to stop their adventure just to manage items.
The team admitted that this affected the flow and enjoyment of the game.
On May 21, the game will add 30 more basic bag slots across general items, equipment, and materials.
Storage NPCs will also be added to several major cities.
Reward systems will be adjusted to reduce item storage pressure.
The team also plans to add an instant junk item selling feature in the future.
3. Molten iron progression needs adjustment
The developers also discussed Molten Iron, a key resource for character progression.
Players felt that character growth became too restricted because they could not get enough of this resource.
The team explained that molten iron was originally designed as a core part of the game economy and equipment farming loop.
However, launch data showed that players were not receiving enough items and materials.
The system also became too complicated for many players to use effectively.
The team cannot quickly increase molten iron amounts yet because that could affect the long-term economy.
Instead, temporary measures such as special rewards and events will be used first.
4. RP energy will become easier to recover
The RP energy system also became a major topic among players.
Many players felt they wanted to continue playing but could not because RP blocked progress.
The developers explained that RP was originally designed to prevent burnout and daily pressure.
However, they admitted that the system ignored players who were still enjoying the game and wanted to play longer in one session.
On May 21, Summer Spices will be added to daily mission rewards.
This will help players craft RP recovery items more easily.
Summer Wine will also be added to some exchange shops.
Long-term plans include adding more ways to gain RP through gameplay.
5. Battle Pass EXP pack will become free
The most sensitive topic involves the game’s payment structure.
Players strongly criticized the Battle Pass EXP Pack because it felt like double charging.
Even after buying the Battle Pass, players still had to buy another pack to level it more conveniently.
The developers admitted this was a mistake.
They also said this product should not have existed in the first place.
Starting May 21, the EXP pack will become free.
The team also said it will not sell the same type of product again in the future.
Players who already bought the EXP pack will receive a full refund.
The team also plans to reduce Battle Pass difficulty and adjust monthly payment packs to offer better value.
6. Bugs and QoL fixes are coming
The developer note also lists many bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements.
These are planned for May 21, 2026.
Fixes include characters getting stuck after using dodge skills, notification red dots not disappearing, and some menu screens freezing.
The update will also improve storage systems and shortcut buttons.
It will add storage NPCs to several major cities.
Some quests and cutscenes will also be fixed.
A new toggle for showing navigation routes will be added.
The team said it is still reviewing player feedback daily and will fix issues based on priority.
A clearer apology to players
The developer note is important because it directly acknowledges launch problems.
Instead of avoiding criticism, the team openly addressed the systems that created frustration.
Now, players will need to see whether the promised May 21 update can restore confidence.
Game of Thrones: Kingsroad is already available on PC, while its mobile launch is scheduled for May 21, 2026.
This developer note feels like damage control, but at least it is clear damage control. Game of Thrones: Kingsroad needs trust as much as content right now, and admitting that the Battle Pass EXP pack should not have existed is a strong first step.
Game of Thrones: Kingsroad is available on PC today, with an official release scheduled. on mobile platforms on May 21.
