There are prolonged and chaotic medieval battle scenes, skirmishes, 1 on 1 fights, and fights against monsters and dragons.
Each season becomes bloodier, gorier, and more violent as the show goes on. Seasons 3 and 4 are by far the bloodiest, goriest, and the most violent since they're based on A Storm Of Swords, while Season 8 comes close.
There are numerous gory images that will be unsettling.
People are consistently kidnapped, with some fights back in violent methods.
We see the violence on-screen and hear them referenced in dialogue as well.
Sexual violence is shown, particularly during the early seasons.
During battle scenes, you can see stabbings, mutilations, beheadings, people being crushed by horses, and blood flying all over the screen.
Violence and bloody execution of people are shown in all seasons.
There is also torture and genital mutilation of one of the main male characters. Very disturbing.
Frequent but extremely graphic, gory violence. Including murders, executions, and their aftermaths. Large-scale battles with long, gruesome fight scenes, swords, crossbows, clubs, and many other weapons are visible. Also, sexual violence is graphically depicted. Skeletons, zombie-like creatures, and dragons are among the show's scary fantasy creatures.
Beheadings are shown (heads falling and rolling away), even in combat.
Jousting is present in the show, with bloody results.
The battle sequences are very prolonged, extremely bloody, and extremely gruesome. During these battle scenes, a numerous amount of soldiers will get stabbed by swords, get chopped in half, get their heads split in half, etc. with tons of blood and gore. Some of the battle scenes are more of an adrenaline rush while others are more vicious and terrifying.
There is some violence against frail, young women and children.
