Winter is coming.

And for those starting to plan their long nights in with a puzzle and a jug of wine, Jumbo Games has unveiled a new line of Game of Thrones jigsaws.

Jumbo has secured a pan European deal with HBO global Licensing to produce the new collection of adult puzzles, scheduled to hit shelves this Christmas.

The initial launch will feature a 1,000 piece original jigsaw puzzle arriving this year, followed with three 500 piece puzzle Limited Edition Collector’s Gift Box planned for spring/summer and a further edition for winter 2015.

Gray Richmond, managing director at Jumbo Games, said: “We are thrilled to be working with HBO on this fabulous license and we are looking forward to our first Game of Thrones puzzles to hit shelves.

“Game of Thrones is a massive success and there will be many fans to enjoy them.”

Products will hit retail across 2014 and 2015, with a range of shaped puzzles, playing cards and puzzle assortments.

The line will land on shelves this September and will feature a collection of 500 piece and 100 piece puzzles, all billed as the 'ideal collectable for fans old and new.'

The new range of jigsaw puzzles will be available to retailers across the UK this autumn/winter.

1,000-piece jigsaw depicts a family tree diagram of the House Stark, House Lannister, House Baratheon, House Targaryen and House Arryn.
