What is the title of the Game of Thrones prequel series that premiered in 2022?

The story behind the answer

The Game of Thrones prequel series that premiered in 2022 is “House of the Dragon.” The HBO fantasy drama explores the history of House Targaryen nearly two centuries before the events of Game of Thrones.

The series is based primarily on parts of George R. R. Martin’s 2018 book Fire & Blood. It begins during the reign of King Viserys I Targaryen and follows the succession crisis that develops into the Targaryen civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons. The story focuses on figures including Rhaenyra Targaryen, Daemon Targaryen, and Alicent Hightower.

House of the Dragon premiered on August 21, 2022, with a ten-episode first season. “The Long Night” and “Bloodmoon” are associated with earlier Game of Thrones spin-off concepts, while A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is a separate prequel project based on Martin’s Dunk and Egg stories. None is the title of the 2022 series.
