HBO Tuesday unveiled an April launch date for the final season of its fantasy drama series Game Of Thrones. 

The pay TV service released a trailer for the multiple Emmy award-winning series announcing the show's April return, but did not release a specific date. The series won the 2018 Emmy for best drama series last month.

HBO has said it has plans to create several potential Game Of Thrones spinoff projects once the series ends.
