Since the arrival of House of the Dragon to the Max catalog, Game of Thrones fans have had great joy because the fantastic series was back. However, the second season took its time.

It promised to take viewers back to the world of Westeros while exploring the fascinating and often violent history of House Targaryen, full of intrigue, power, and, of course, dragons.

Now, it’s time to find out when the new episodes of Ryan J. Condal and George R.R. Martin‘s creation, which has won a Primetime Emmy award and has broken several records, will be added to the HBO platform.

When is HOTD season 2 released?

The countdown to the second season of House of the Dragon has begun, as the premiere date has been revealed. The new episodes of the drama will arrive during the summer of 2024, so there is very little time left.

The first installments landed on HBO during 2022 and maintained the same level of high-quality production that characterized the original series. Expectations have been more than high, and it has managed to exceed each one of them.

Because of this, the spin-off serving as a prequel has been mega-successful and has broken several records on Max. Not only was it the most-watched globally for several weeks, but it also achieved record numbers for the platform.

Episode Guide of HOTD Season 2

It has been confirmed that the second part of the iconic fantasy series will have a total of eight episodes, which are believed to be released weekly. In addition to the new season, it was also revealed that a third one is on the way.

The new episodes will have their grand streaming debut on June 16, 2024. This means that the Sunday ceremony, created by GOT, is back for another year, but this time for HOTD.
