HBO certainly made us wait for the first full trailer for the eighth and final season of Game of Thrones, but it arrived in style this past week, smashing records in the process.
According to the network, Tuesday’s trailer racked up a whopping 81 million views in its first 24 hours across all platforms, including YouTube, Facebook and Twitter.
HBO’s previous record holder also happened to be Game of Thrones, with its season seven trailer notching 61 million views in its first day back in 2017.
