Snapchat's new 'Game of Thrones' lens brings a massive ice dragon to New York
Watch Next

Snapchat and HBO have teamed up on a new Game of Thrones-themed lens and the results are pretty epic.

The new lens features an ice dragon landing on top of New York's Flatiron Building and covering the whole thing in ice. It's is the latest example of Snapchat's new "Landmarker" lenses -- augmented reality effects tied to specific, well-known landmarks, like the Flatiron Building or the Eiffel Tower.

The lens will be available to Snapchat users near the Flatiron Building for a full week beginning April 14, 2019. HBO will have Game of Thrones lenses in the app during that time in other cities, but New York is the only place where you'll be able to catch undead Viserion in all his glory.
