It’s been a long, long wait for fans since Game of Thrones season seven came to a close over a year ago now. And while that wait will continue into 2019, as we learned in July, all we knew as of then was that it would be sometime in the first half of the year.

Now we have something to finally focus in on. HBO has announced that Game of Thrones season eight will arrive in April of 2019. The perfect time to kick off the show’s final season, considering that all but two of the seven seasons premiered in April. And one of those two began just one day before April.

HBO made the announcement with a video, which you can check out below.

As the final season of Game of Thrones approaches—something fans are no doubt excited about and dreading at the same time—we know that multiple spinoffs are still possible.

The closest spinoff comes from Game of Thrones author and creator George R.R. Martin and Stardust, Kick-Ass, X-Men, and Kingsman writer Jane Goldman. And now that very same spinoff has found itself a star as two-time Academy Award nominee Naomi Watts has joined the cast of the show.

We’ve already seen Game of Thrones get its own line of beer made by Brewery Ommegang. Now, heading into its final season, the show is about to get another adult beverage with a little bit more of a kick.

It’s been announced that HBO, in collaboration with British alcoholic beverage company Diageo, are releasing a line of Thrones-inspired Scotch whiskies. One is a new blended Scotch from Johnnie Walker fittingly called White Walker and inspired of course by the Night King and his ever-growing army of icy undead who have been the great looming threat slowly approaching since the beginning of the series. The rest are a collection of single malt Scotch whiskies inspired by the various houses of Westeros and the Night’s Watch.

You can find all of the information, including pricing and alcohol by volume, along with images of the bottles below.

For anyone who might have missed it, HBO released the first trailer for True Detective season three a few days back.

In addition to the trailer, they also recently released a promo video for their 2019 lineup. This includes new seasons of the aforementioned True Detective, as well as Veep, Barry, The Deuce, Room 104, and Big Little Lies. It also includes some new series like Camping starring Jennifer Garner, The Shop, and My Brilliant Friend, a new Flight of the Conchords special, the HBO original film My Dinner with Hervé starring Peter Dinklage, the documentary Jane Fonda in Five Acts, a special titled Pod Save America, and of course, Game of Thrones season eight, the final season.
