The "Lord of the Hightower" event offers players of Game of Thrones: Legends the opportunity to recruit some familiar faces directly from the "Dance of the Dragons" storyline. Available from October 7 until November 4, this limited-time summon focuses heavily on House Hightower, bringing in characters who have recently graced screens in House of the Dragon Season 3.

Headlining the lineup is Ormund Hightower, portrayed by James Norton in the series, who made his live-action debut in the show's most recent season. He is joined by other key Hightower figures, Ser Gwayne Hightower and Otto Hightower, alongside fan-favorites Rhaenyra Targaryen, Aegon II Targaryen, and Aegon's formidable dragon, Sunfyre. This collection of six champions creates a virtual reunion of sorts, allowing players to assemble teams featuring characters central to the Targaryen civil war.

For those new to Game of Thrones: Legends, "Summons" are the primary mechanism for acquiring and enhancing "Champions" — the game's playable characters. Players spend in-game currency to draw from various banners, earning "Champion Shards" that eventually unlock new characters or boost the power of existing ones. Limited-time events like "Lord of the Hightower" are particularly valuable for securing specific characters from the game's expansive roster, which pulls from both Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon lore.

Beyond leading the "Lord of the Hightower" lineup, Ormund Hightower will also be the featured Champion in the "Grand Melee" event, running from October 12 to October 17. This further cements House Hightower's prominence in the game's October schedule.

The "Lord of the Hightower" event is just one part of a packed month for Game of Thrones: Legends. October begins with the "Robb's War" summon, featuring iconic characters like Robb Stark and Daenerys Targaryen. Later in the month, players can look forward to the "Winterfell" summon with Jon Snow, a dedicated House of the Dragon summon featuring Rhaenyra and Viserys I, and "The Brightflame" summon introducing Aerion Targaryen and Alicent Hightower. This extensive calendar ensures that fans of the intricate world of Westeros have ample opportunities to engage with their favorite characters, whether they hail from the original series or its dragon-filled prequel. The focus on the Targaryen civil war characters throughout October highlights the game's commitment to reflecting the ongoing narrative of House of the Dragon.
