Game of Thrones in release order

About this order

What is on this list

All 73 episodes of Game of Thrones, from Winter Is Coming in April 2011 to The Iron Throne in May 2019. All 26 episodes of House of the Dragon aired so far — ten in 2022, eight in 2024 and eight between June and August 2026. All six episodes of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, which ran in six weeks at the start of 2026. And Conquest & Rebellion: An Animated History of the Seven Kingdoms, the 45-minute animated feature that came with the season 7 disc in December 2017.

Nothing here shares a night with anything else

This is the rarest thing about the page and it is worth saying plainly, because it is the reason FROO usually exists. Game of Thrones finished in May 2019 and House of the Dragon did not begin until August 2022. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms ran from January to February 2026 and House of the Dragon's third season did not start until June. The animated feature is a December 2017 disc, in a gap between two seasons.

So the schedule order column is 1 on every row and there is no contested night on this page at all. The list is simply the order things came out, and no tie-breaking was required to build it.

What release order still does here is put the feature where it belongs. Sitting between The Dragon and the Wolf and Winterfell, it is a Targaryen history watched in the eighteen-month wait for the final season, which is what it was made to be. Filed as a bonus feature on a disc it is an extra; filed by date it is part of the run.

Two dates that are not the ones Wikipedia prints

Seven, the fourth episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, is dated 6 February 2026 here. Super Bowl LX had the Sunday, so HBO moved the HBO Max drop forward to the Friday and left the linear broadcast in its usual slot two days later. Wikipedia's table prints the linear date with a footnote about the early release; this site dates a row to when a contemporary audience could first see it, which is the same call the Yellowstone list makes for a Paramount+ drop after midnight and the Supernatural list makes for the Ghostfacers webisodes. It changes nothing about the position — the episode sits between 1 February and 15 February whichever date is shown.

Conquest & Rebellion is dated 12 December 2017 and not September. The season 7 digital download went on sale on 25 September 2017 and did not include it: the feature was a limited-time bonus disc with the Blu-ray and the DVD. HBO did put its first chapter online free in the middle of September, but a chapter is not the feature, and it is the feature that is on this list.

The feature is one row, on purpose

Contemporary coverage disagreed about how many chapters Conquest & Rebellion has — one piece said seven, another eleven — and the answer turns out to be ten, which the Wiki of Westeros catalogues by name. They are chapters of one continuous 45-minute film released on one day, not ten things released in an order, so there is nothing for release order to say about them and they would all carry the same date. It is one row, filed with the films. It has no Wikipedia article of its own.

The cross-over flags, and which direction they point

Sixteen of the 106 rows carry a flag, and the line drawn was this: a cross-over is a reference to a character or a story that belongs to another production in this franchise, not to the shared world all four are set in. Winterfell, the Iron Throne, House Lannister and the Night's Watch are the setting. They are not cross-overs, and flagging them would have marked most of the page and told a reader nothing.

Nor are ancestors. A Targaryen appearing in a prequel is not a Game of Thrones character appearing in a prequel, and the guest star icon is not for family resemblance.

What is left is specific and checkable. On the Game of Thrones side it is six episodes: Old Nan and then Joffrey's Book of Brothers on Ser Duncan the Tall; Maester Aemon on his brother Egg, twice, once at the start and once as he dies; and Joffrey and then Shireen recounting Rhaenyra's war against her half-brother — an episode that takes its title from it. Those are Dunk, Egg and Rhaenyra, who are the leads of the other two series, named years before either existed.

On the House of the Dragon side it is nine, and they are all one thread: Aegon's dream, the Song of Ice and Fire, the darkness in the far north and the prince that was promised. That thread reaches forward into what Game of Thrones spends eight seasons on, which is why those rows carry the story arc icon as well. One of them, The Queen Who Ever Was, carries the guest star icon too — Daemon's vision at the weirwood shows a White Walker and Daenerys with her three hatchlings, and those are Game of Thrones, on screen, in a House of the Dragon episode.

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms contributes one: a passing line in The Squire about Maekar's third son being packed off to the Citadel to be made a maester. That is Aemon, sixty years before the Wall. Nerdist's easter-egg round-ups for the other five episodes are almost entirely houses, places and ancestors, which this page does not count.

Films get no flags anywhere on this site, on the grounds that any film in a franchise is a cross-over of a sort, so Conquest & Rebellion carries none — even though six Game of Thrones characters narrate it.

Where the links go

Every entry links to IMDb and to the Wiki of Westeros. All but one link to Wikipedia as well: the animated feature has no article there.

Four of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' six episodes have no article of their own either, so those four links land on the right row of the article about the series rather than on a page about the episode.

One caution about House of the Dragon's third season. A month after the finale aired, Wikipedia had still not published titles for episodes three to eight, so the titles here were taken from each episode's own page and from reviews written on the night. If you are checking this list against a season summary somewhere else, that is where the two may not yet agree.

What is still to come

House of the Dragon has been renewed for a fourth and final season, in production, with no date. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms was renewed for a second season before the first had aired, based on The Sworn Sword, and is expected in 2027. A feature film about Aegon's Conquest has a writer and nothing else. None of the three has a day, so none of them is on this list yet.
