House of the Dragon episode 7 release time (by time zone)

House of the Dragon episode 7 debuts on HBO and HBO Max this week. What time can audiences anticipate the next episode where they live?

There are just four episodes of House of the Dragon left. The Game of Thrones prequel series made its debut on both HBO and HBO Max (and other channels around the world) just over a month ago, and GoT-Mania has been running wild all over again since then.

The full tale of the Targaryens has remained somewhat untold until now, with Game of Thrones often referencing “The Mad King” in the beginning and throughout Daenerys Targaryen’s journey to Westeros. However, House of the Dragon is giving viewers all the backstory to the tale, giving us a chance to see the woes of King Viserys I, the errors he made, and his very dangerous brother Daemon.

The previous episode saw the show take its biggest time jump yet, with Emma D’Arcy stepping in to replace breakout star Milly Alcock as Princess Rhaenyra (as the character was now much older). And that has set the stage for the second half of the season, with more focus on the adult versions of Rhaenyra and Queen Alicent Hightower (Olivia Cooke, who stepped in to replace the younger Emily Carey after the time jump).

House of the Dragon will continue to make people talk in the weeks ahead, especially with the first season’s finale in sight. But we’re not going to jump too far ahead, especially with episode 7 almost upon us. On that note, when can fans expect to view “Driftmark” in their region?
