Here are complete spoilers for the first episode of House of the Dragon. You've been made aware.
The second episode of House of the Dragon will be really dramatic. You won't be surprised to find that the political intrigue and familial strife in the Game of Thrones prequel show's premiere are just going to get worse from here.
For those who require a recap, the HBO Max show's premiere episode included a lot of action. King Viserys had to decide between his brother, Prince Daemon, and daughter Princess Rhaenyra as his new heir to the Iron Throne after losing his wife (and queen) and newborn son after a difficult - and horrifying to witness, should we say - birthing sequence. You'll seeAs you may recall, Viserys opted for the latter, and after some, to put it politely, less than stellar power displays by Daemon, Viserys even exiled his sibling to Hightower, the realm he should be praising it over. So now that the battle lines for the Targaryen civil war have been established, the actual fighting will soon start.
However, the recap of the plot is complete. You've come here to learn when HBO Max will air the second season of House of the Dragon. The streaming service's premiere time and where you may watch episode 2 if HBO Max isn't available in your area are both listed below. To help you keep track of when new episodes are released, we'll also give you a detailed breakdown of season 1's release calendar.
So this is where HBO Max's House of the Dragon episode 2 soars.
When will HBO Max begin airing Season 2 of House of the Dragon?
The second episode of House of the Dragon will air on HBO Max on Sunday, August 28 at 9 PM ET / 6 PM PT.
The series premiere, which occurred at the same time, shattered numerous records on HBO Max in the hours following its release. Not bad for a fantasy programme whose predecessor appeared to have lost its main audience following its eighth season.
