Game Of Thrones

The official trailer for trò chơi of Thrones Season 8, Episode 3 didn’t reveal much, but a brightened version just spoiled one important detail. We pretty much know where all the human characters will be located when the Great Battle of Winterfell breaks out, but now we may also know exactly what Daenerys Targaryen’s two remaining dragons will be doing when the fighting starts.

This spoiler comes lớn us courtesy of redditor u/spacelyyy989, who shared a brightened GIF of the Game of Thrones Season 8, Episode 3 previews featuring the Unsullied army preparing for battle. In the top left corner, you can just barely make out Drogon and Rhaegal flying overhead.

The fact that Dany’s two remaining dragons are out và about during the battle isn’t exactly a surprise, though we weren’t expecting to see them so early on. Official images from the upcoming trò chơi of Thrones episode show Jon Snow và Dany positioned off to the northwest of Winterfell, presumably waiting for the Night King khổng lồ strike so they can chase after hyên. We assumed the dragons would be with them, but perhaps that isn’t the plan.

Drogon and Rhaegal also appear khổng lồ be flying out of frame, possibly pursuing something else that we can’t see. Could it be their brother-turned-ice-rồng Viserion? It’s a stretch, but if that’s what’s happening then perhaps Bran Stark’s plan khổng lồ catch the Night King actually works.

Then again, the fact that the Unsullied are standing still suggests the battle hasn’t started yet. Most likely, we’re seeing one of the first moments from trò chơi of Thrones Season 8, Episode 3 where the two opposing armies line up lớn attack. So perhaps the dragons are simply there to lớn intimidate the encroaching White Walkers & wights.

As for whether Jon and Dany are riding the dragons in this clip, there’s really no way to lớn tell, but it’s possible they could hop onto the dragons to lớn quickly relocate lớn that hill where they’re standing in HBO’s official Episode 3 images. (Side note: Why aren’t either of them wearing any armor?!)

Another question worth asking is why HBO obscured this detail in the first place. It doesn’t seem lượt thích that much of a surprise that the dragons are flying around before the battle begins, though perhaps this will turn out khổng lồ be a bigger khuyễn mãi giảm giá than we think.


Of course, it’s also possible that the lademo GoT trailer simply succumbed lớn Season 8’s dramatically darker palette. Plenty of fans & critics have noted that recent episodes have sầu looked particularly dreary, which is mostly due to a focus on naturamenu lighting in a show that now takes place in perpetual winter.

We just hope that when The Great Battle of Winterfell finally arrives, it’s at least bright enough to make out those dragons that gobbled up the show’s CGI budget in the first place. Otherwise, Cersei is going lớn be really upphối about her missing elephants.

trò chơi of Thrones Season 8, Episode 3 airs Sunday, April 28 at 9 p.m. Eastern on HBO.
