It appears the final season of “Game of Thrones” will be what many thought: a battle between fire and ice.

HBO dropped its official teaser trailer Thursday night.

The clip shows a wolf and dragon engulfed by ice as a lion burns and ignites the ground around it, with both elements meeting at the center of the Painted Table at Dragonstone, Entertainment Tonight reported.

The trailer was released at the Sao Paulo Expo, a branch of San Diego Comic-Con, according to Entertainment Tonight.

The video, like the last teaser trailer, did not show any new footage from the long-awaited return of the series.

The eighth season will run six episodes that will air in April 2019.

The next, and final, season of "Game of Thrones" will air in April 2019.
