HBO has finally come up with the release date of its fantasy drama TV series ‘Game of Thrones (GOT) season 8’.
‘Game of Thrones’ fans and addicts have been right all along – the epic TV series will be airing in April, 2019.
HBO has also released a teaser to accompany its announcement. There are no new scenes in the teaser, though. It’s just a montage of past season highlights.
But the teaser more or less gives one an idea of the central theme for the final season, with HBO claiming the hashtag #ForTheThrone (For The Throne).

There will be six (6) episodes in Season 8 of Game of Thrones. And according to its director David Nutter on a reddit AMA, each episode will be more than 60 minutes long:
Season 8 episodes will all I think be longer than 60 minutes. They’ll be dancing around the bigger numbers, I know that for sure.
