HBO has greenlit two additional seasons for its upcoming "Game of Thrones" prequel, "A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: The Hedge Knight." The series, based on George R.R. Martin's "Tales of Dunk and Egg" novellas, is set to premiere on January 18, 2026, with its second season scheduled for a 2027 debut. This significant renewal underscores the network's confidence in the show's potential.

"A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms" follows the adventures of Ser Duncan the Tall, a hedge knight, and his squire Egg, approximately a century before the events of "Game of Thrones."
