With Season 2 Episode 8, this chapter of Rings of Power will come to an end – here’s exactly when it’ll drop on Prime Video and its release time.

Rings of Power Season 2 is barreling towards its finale. In the penultimate episode, the Siege of Eregion saw fire and blood rain down on Middle-earth, with Adar and his Orcs fighting to vanquish Sauron.

However, there are a lot of unanswered questions as we approach the last episode: is Arondir dead, where’s the Balrog, is The Stranger actually Gandalf, and who is the Dark Wizard?

Tom Bombadil probably knows the answers, but we’ll just need to wait – so, here’s what you need to know.
