A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Episode 4 Release Date
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms episode 4, titled “Seven”, is scheduled to premiere on Sunday, February 8, 2026, at 10:00 p.m. ET on HBO and Max in the US.
This episode arrives right in the middle of the six‑episode season, the point where quiet setup usually turns into real tension at Ashford.
Some viewers are already joking that this is the “don’t blink” week, because early reviews hint at bigger emotional swings and a few choices that may age badly for certain lords and knights.
There is also a small wrinkle: because this date clashes with Super Bowl Sunday, there is industry chatter that HBO might tweak the plan, but for now the official time remains locked in that late‑night Sunday slot.
When and Where to Watch A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Episode 4
Episode 4 will air on HBO and stream on Max in the US on Sunday, February 8, 2026, at exactly 10:00 p.m. ET / 7:00 p.m. PT / 9:00 p.m. CT / 8:00 p.m. MT.
For many international regions that follow the same simulcast pattern as earlier episodes, this lines up with an early‑morning Monday drop, often around 3:00 a.m. GMT on partner platforms, so night owls and early commuters both get a chance to catch it before spoilers flood social feeds.
In the UK, new episodes land on Sky Atlantic and NOW on Mondays, with episode 4 due on Monday, February 9, 2026, keeping the series in a predictable start‑of‑the‑week slot.
A common viewing habit is already forming: late Sunday in North America, Monday evenings in Europe and India, with fans trading reactions online in waves rather than all at once.
Episode Schedule for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
Episode 4 sits in a straightforward weekly schedule: one new episode every Sunday in the US, from January 18 to February 22, 2026.
According to a recent post on X from Wiki of Thrones (@WikiOfThrones), the account shared the official episode release dates for HBO’s A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, giving fans a clear look at how the season will roll out.
The full Season 1 rollout looks like this (US HBO/Max times at 10:00 p.m. ET each Sunday):
| Episode | Title (known) | US Date & Time (HBO / Max) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | The Hedge Knight | Sunday, January 18, 2026 – 10:00 p.m. ET |
| 2 | Hard Salt Beef | Sunday, January 25, 2026 – 10:00 p.m. ET |
| 3 | The Squire | Sunday, February 1, 2026 – 10:00 p.m. ET |
| 4 | Seven | Sunday, February 8, 2026 – 10:00 p.m. ET |

| 6 | Finale (title TBA) | Sunday, February 22, 2026 – 10:00 p.m. ET |
Across regions that follow GMT timing, episodes 4, 5, and 6 are currently listed for February 9, 16, and 23 at about 3:00 a.m. GMT on streaming, mirroring the weekly US rhythm with a simple overnight shift.
Runtimes hover around the low‑to‑mid 30‑minute mark, with episode 4 noted at roughly 34 minutes, which keeps the storytelling tight and makes weekly viewing easy to fit into crowded schedules.
Cast of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
The main cast of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is led by Peter Claffey as Ser Duncan “Dunk” the Tall and Dexter Sol Ansell as Aegon “Egg” Targaryen.
Around them, HBO has built a strong ensemble of familiar Westerosi names and new faces:
-
Finn Bennett as Prince Aerion Targaryen
-
Bertie Carvel as Prince Baelor Targaryen
-
Sam Spruell as Prince Maekar Targaryen
-
Daniel Ings as Ser Lyonel Baratheon
-
Danny Webb as Ser Arlan of Pennytree
-
Shaun Thomas as Raymun Fossoway
-
Tom Vaughan‑Lawlor as Plummer, Ashford’s steward and Master of the Games
The line‑up mixes rising talent with experienced character actors, which suits the show’s slightly smaller‑scale focus: fewer dragons on the horizon, more time watching hedge knights, princes, and stewards collide in tight spaces like tourney tents and castle yards.
About A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is a Game of Thrones prequel set about a century before the original series, adapting George R. R. Martin’s Dunk and Egg novellas into a six‑episode first season on HBO.
The story follows hedge knight Ser Duncan the Tall and his young squire Egg as they wander Westeros, arriving at the Ashford tournament where local politics, old grudges, and Targaryen family tensions quietly spiral into something much larger.
Compared with House of the Dragon, the tone is more grounded and character‑driven: shorter episodes, smaller set‑pieces, more time with ordinary people standing just off to the side of history while great houses argue over banners.
On X, the official Game of Thrones account (@GameOfThrones) highlighted Decider’s praise calling A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms “heart, soul and heroism… a charming new addition to the Game of Thrones franchise,” while confirming it premieres Sunday at 10 p.m. on @hbomax.
Season 1 premiered on January 18, 2026, has six episodes scheduled through late February, and has already been renewed for a second season planned for 2027, signaling strong confidence in this corner of the Westeros timeline.
