On Wednesday, French game development studio Cyanide announced that they will be working with George R. R. Martin to bring his popular fantasy series, A Song of Fire and Ice, to the realm of video games. The press release implies that there will be more than one game, and the games will come out for PCs and "next-gen consoles." Apparently an HBO television series is in the works as well, in addition to board and card games related to the books.

Or is this one of those Chinese knockoffs, like "backstroke of the west" or "Harry potter and the big Funnel"?

It is Duke Nukem Forever among the fantasy cycles.
If you don't count The Wheel of Time, but that's quite different story.
