With a 10-year time jump and the recasting of some characters, House of the Dragon is set to continue with a game-changing seventh episode. Fans are wondering exactly when they will be able to watch episode 7 of the fantasy series, which serves as a prequel to HBO’s original drama Game of Thrones. Based on the works of author George R. R. Martin, it continues to throw curveballs the way of the audience. Here is the release date for the series’ next installment.
When is the release date and time for House of the Dragon episode 7?
House of the Dragon episode 7 will be released on Sunday, October 2, 2022. The release time varies depending on where you are in the world. Here is when the new episode will premiere in the US on HBO Max, the UK, and elsewhere:

Episode 7 is called “Driftmark” which is an island west of Dragonstone in Blackwater Bay. The area has been built up by Lord Corlys Velaryon and houses a castle on the island which keeps the Driftwood Throne, High Tide. It has prospered in recent years thanks to Lord Corlys’ wealth, with two large port towns growing on the coasts. It is likely we will see Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen and her husband Ser Laenor Velaryon visit Driftmark in the upcoming episode.
