Both series have been renewed for new seasons even before their planned releases in 2026. House of the Dragon will receive a fourth season, and A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms—based on George R. R. Martin's Dunk and Egg novellas—returns with a second season.
In 2026, both series will be available on HBO: A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms on Sunday, January 18, followed by House of the Dragon season three in the summer. Season two of Knight will then follow in 2027, while season four of House of the Dragon is scheduled for 2028.
Francesca Orsi, Executive VP of HBO Programming, says she is thrilled to bring new content from the Game of Thrones universe over the next three years. According to her, both series show how "vast and rich" Martin's world still is. She emphasizes that the adventures of Dunk and Egg form an inspiring underdog story, while House of the Dragon will feature some of the most epic battles yet next summer.
House of the Dragon is created by Ryan Condal and George R. R. Martin, with Condal as showrunner. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms was co-created by Martin and Ira Parker, who also serves as showrunner. Parker previously worked as a writer and co-executive producer on the first season of House of the Dragon.
