Game of Thrones Season 8 Official Tease: Crypts of Winterfell

HBO has released the best look at Game of Thrones season 8 yet.

The cable network has released brand new images that not only tease the events of the remaining six episodes but establish the 13 major players going in.

This being the final season, HBO has been reticent to reveal much about what to expect, but this hasn't stopped fans from theorising.

A cryptic trailer teased a huge reveal relating to the heritage of Jon Snow (Kit Harington), while also resurfacing a rather shocking theory about Bran Stark (Isaac Hempstead Wright).

Scroll through the below gallery to see the brand new photos teasing Game of Thrones's final season.

Game of Thrones season 8 begins in the US on 14 April. It’ll air in the UK the following evening on Sky Atlantic. You can find a compilation of everything we know about the final six episodes here.
