House of the Dragon’s ninth episode may have been its most shocking yet. The season finale is on its way, but when does episode 10 premiere?

Game of Thrones fans are living their best lives right now. Over three years after the original TV came to an end (in rather infamous fashion by delivering one of the most reviled series finales of all time), the world of Westeros has returned in HBO’s House of the Dragon.

A critical gem that has received nothing but love from fans and critics, it has set the stage for a very exciting new chapter in the GoT world. This chapter, though, takes place before the previous one, as House of the Dragon is indeed a prequel series.

Centering on the Targaryens around 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, it depicts the beginning of the end for House Targaryen, dramatizing what led to their infamous downfall. And clearly, it’s a story fans have engaged with, because the series has been a huge ratings success for HBO and HBO Max worldwide.

With nine episodes of its ten-episode first season now having aired on HBO, there is just one more left. Oh fear not, there is a second season on the way! Before we get there, though, when can we expect the season 1 finale?
