After a two-year gap, House of the Dragon has returned, immersing viewers in one of the darkest episodes of the Targaryen civil war. The Battle of the Gullet in the Season 3 opener, which debuted on Sunday, June 21, increased the stakes and resulted in significant losses for both the Blacks and the Greens.
New episodes will be broadcast every week. Viewers are naturally curious about when the remaining episodes will be released and how long the new season will last now that the first episode is ready.
