Game of Thrones: Conquest has debuted the "Of Fire and Blood" event to coincide with the premiere of House of the Dragon Season 3. This limited-time activity, part of the September "Dragonseeds Arc," allows players to secure gear and progression rewards.
The September 4 launch of Of Fire and Blood
Starting on September 4,players of Game of Thrones: Conquest can participate in the "Of Fire and Blood" Recipe Event. According to the report, this event runs until September 6, providing a narrow window for users to exchange event-specific currencies for gear templates and other progression-based rewards. The event is developed by Warner Bros. Boston, the same studio responsible for the more recent Game of Thrones: Dragonfire.
This specific event is nested within the larger "Dragonseeds Arc" for September, which serves as a narrative bridge to the events of House of the Dragon Season 3. By aligning mobile game content with television releases, Warner Bros. boston is attempting to capitalize on the renewed interest in the Targaryen dynasty's internal conflicts.
A Tale of the Tavern and the September 22 expansion
The "Of Fire and Blood" event is only the first phase of a broader monthly strategy. As the report says, a second part of the Recipe Event, titled "A Tale of the Tavern," is scheduled to begin on September 22. These Recipe Events function by allowing players to trade materials in their inventory for rewards that scale based on the player's Lord Level, ensuring that high-level veterans receive more powerful gear than newcomers.
Beyond these two phases, the "Dragonseeds Arc" includes other specialized activities to keep the community engaged throughout the month. These include "The Red Sowing," a PvE (Player vs. Environment) event, and "Of Salt and Sea," which focuses on trinket crafting. This multi-pronged approach ensures that Game of Thrones: Conquest maintains high daily active users during the peak of the television season .
From the 2017 launch to the 2027 War for Westeros

This upcoming real-time strategy (RTS) game is slated for a 2027 release and aims to provide a more accessible RTS experience for fans of George R.R. Martin's universe.
This transition from a mobile-first strategy game to a full-scale RTS reflects a broader trend in the A Song of Ice and Fire franchise to diversify its interactive media. By maintaining a steady stream of content in Game of Thrones: Conquest, the franchise keeps its core audience primed for the larger-scale gaming experiences planned for the end of the decade.

Martin's expanding fantasy world.
