HBO has released a trailer for “A Knight of Seven Kingdoms”, a prequel to the Game Of Thrones. The spinoff show is set almost a century before the Game of Thrones and will provide a very unique insight. It is also set 72  years after the House of Dragons, so it should provide some sort of continuity to the series. 

When will A Knight of Seven Kingdoms release?

A Knight of Seven Kingdoms is a Game of Thrones spinoff show and will release in 2025 wit, 2025. The show will be based around 100 years before The Song of Ice and Fire. While Targaryens still hold power, the actual nature of this power will be quite different from what we are used to expect. 

The trailer did now display any Dragons, so whether the show actually includes Dragons is still unclear. 

Which Books influence A Knight of Seven Kingdoms

The show gets its influence from ‘The Tales of Dunk and Egg’ novella series by George R.R. Martin. The series sheds light on Westeros’ feudal aspects. It was first published in 1998 and provides a deeper understanding of the Targaryen dynasty and the historical context of the "A Song of Ice and Fire" series. They offer a more light-hearted and adventurous tone compared to the main series, while still delving into the complexities of the world Martin has created.
