House of the Dragon season 2 could be on our screens this time next year
28.09.2023 - 11:35 / gamesradar.com / Next Year
A promising update on House of the Dragon season 2 has given expectant viewers a 2024 release window to look forward to.
As per Variety, the HBO series could be on our screens in "summer 2024." That’s largely down to filming not being affected by the writers’ and actors’ strikes; scripts were already completed and the UK-based shoot wasn’t a SAG-AFTRA production.
The Game of Thrones spin-off, set 200 years before the events of the main series, charts the fall of the House of Targaryen and a civil war that threatens to tear Westeros apart. Previously, we had seen Rhaenyra and Daemon stand against Alicent and her son Aegon II. Tensions are further raised after the death of Rhaenyra’s second-born Lucerys in an airborne tussle with Alicent’s son Aemond.
The second season, however, will be shorter than the first, coming in at eight episodes. That has a knock-on effect, with a "major battle" intended for season 2 instead being moved to a prospective third season (H/T Deadline).
"There are eight wonderful episodes with so much happening in every episode, and we have trouble, at times, bringing them down to one hour," director Clare Kilner previously told The Hollywood Reporter of the decision to cut the episode count by two in the upcoming season.
If the actors’ strike ends, HBO will also reportedly be "putting its focus" on new seasons of The Last of Us, Euphoria, and The White Lotus next year.

Stardew Valley concert will take its delightful soundtrack on a world tour next year
Video game concerts are some of my favourite things in the world. Final Fantasy’s Distant Worlds, the NieR:Orchestra concerts, the Sonic Symphony - whatever particular series is your personal earworm, hearing music you’ve spent dozens or hours of hours listening to performed by a live orchestra can be incredibly moving and transformative. For those who feel that kind of connection with Stardew Valley, the engrossing farming-slash-romance-slash-dungeon-crawling sim is taking its OST on the road next year.

Stardew Valley celebrates its banger of a soundtrack with a 2024 orchestral tour
Having played 100s of hours of Stardew Valley, I can say with certainty that the soundtrack is absolutely killer. Not only does it feature a combination of genuinely moving and upbeat tracks: but my wife and I also can’t help but hum to the vast majority of the score. That’s going to be a lot more exciting to do in person of course, when the Stardew Valley concert tour kicks off next year.

Activision reminds fans they'll need to get their wallets out for Modern Warfare 3, says its games won't hit Game Pass until next year at the earliest
Unless the FTC's Lina Khan runs in at the last minute to physically tackle Bobby Kotick before he can sign anything, it's looking very likely that Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard will close in the very near future. I mean very near, you understand, as in possibly this Friday, pending word from the UK market regulator. But if you think that heralds the imminent arrival of games like Modern Warfare 3 and Diablo 4 on Microsoft's Game Pass service, Activision has news for you: It doesn't.
