The first episode of House of the Dragon has leaked on torrent sites and other networks, allowing for piracy in varying quality versions. Because House of the Dragon is available immediately online — on HBO Max and Disney+ Hotstar — authentic pirated versions have good video and audio quality.

According to TechRadar, 'House of the Dragon' episode 1 should have aired on HBO Max on Sunday, August 21 at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT. With the episode generating so much attention on BitTorrent, most fans will have received early access to the first episode.

Earlier, rumours circulated on Twitter that HBO was on the lookout for the leaked parties. According to TorrentFreak, Patrick Perkins, Senior Vice President, Chief Intellectual Property Counsel for Warner Bros. Discovery Inc., filed filings in a California court on behalf of the network.

The first leaked version of House of the Dragon episode 1 appeared on torrent sites at about 8:20 am IST on Sunday, August 21 over 24 hours before the official release in full-HD 1080p resolution with surround sound audio. (House of the Dragon launches on HBO Max wherever it is accessible on Sunday at 9 p.m. ET, and at 6:30 a.m. IST on Disney+ Hotstar in India.) Because TV broadcasts are more easily captured than movies on the large screen, high-definition piracy is an ongoing problem.
