By Molly Driscoll , Staff Writer

HBO has released a new trailer for the upcoming fourth season of 鈥淕ame of Thrones.鈥

Fans got pretty lucky this time 鈥 while the trailer released last year was only a minute long, this preview offers nearly a minute extra of footage of the upcoming episodes.

(Warning: spoilers for season 3 follow!)

The new clip shows a lot of knight Jaime Lannister, who鈥檚 back from his long march home, as well as hopeful queen Daenerys and her team and Tyrion, the less-loved Lannister brother, who is struggling in the wake of the return of his father to the capital.

The trailer, which is backed by the song 鈥淔eral Love鈥 by Chelsea Wolfe, begins with a shot of what looks like a dragon flying over buildings.

It then shows the tyrannical King Joffrey sitting at a feast.

鈥淭hey know I saved the city, they know I won the war,鈥 Joffrey tells his uncle (and father) Jaime.

鈥淭he war鈥檚 not won,鈥 Jaime informs him.

Meanwhile, the priestess Melisandre oversees more burning objects and Ser Jorah Mormont, adviser to exiled queen Daenerys, says, 鈥淚t鈥檚 tempting to see your enemies as evil. But there鈥檚 good and evil on both sides in every war ever fought.鈥 (And Daenerys is seated on a throne inside somewhere.)

鈥淭hey have a choice,鈥 Daenerys says. 鈥淭hey can live in my new world or they can die in their old one.鈥

Meanwhile, Tyrion is led through an audience in handcuffs.

鈥淭hings are a bit tense right now,鈥 he says. 鈥淚 don鈥檛 think I鈥檓 talking my way out of this one.鈥

And Jon Snow, illegitimate son of Ned Stark and member of the Night鈥檚 Watch, is still having trouble up north.聽

鈥淚f the wildlings breach the wall, they鈥檒l roll over everything and everyone,鈥 he says.

We also get brief glimpses of Arya, Bran, Theon, his sister Yara, and Petyr Baelish as well as what appears to be the new character Oberyn Martell, a prince of Dorn.聽

Excited? Check out the full preview.

The new season of "Thrones" will premiere on April 6.
