Disappointing News For ‘Game Of Thrones’ Spinoff ‘A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms’ Release Date

HBO has announced that the upcoming Game of Thrones spin-off focused on the adventures of Dunk and Egg will not premiere in 2025 as initially expected, with the new release planned for winter 2026 on both HBO and Max.
The delay follows earlier plans to keep the Game of Thrones franchise active during long breaks by running multiple prequels simultaneously, although no exact 2025 release date was set.
The series is an adaptation of George R.R. Martin’s Dunk and Egg novellas, set approximately one century prior to Game of Thrones, and centers on the adventures of Ser Duncan the Tall and his squire Egg as they interact with various members of the Targaryen family.
The trailer shown at Warner Bros. Discovery's upfront ended with a 2026 title card, and HBO CEO Casey Bloys specified the release would be in winter, likely January or February.
The postponed release implies Game of Thrones fans will wait longer to return to Westeros, while House of the Dragon season 3 production continues with no confirmed premiere yet, possibly supporting a 2026 double release year.
