Earlier today the internet woke up to countless posts about a new Harry Potter game. The footage that was circulating the internet seemed high class and it was revealed that the game is indeed Harry Potter Magic Awakened. There were some doubts as to the legitimacy of the game, however, we know now that the footage is indeed of an upcoming Harry Potter game. Although the game is far from release currently and it not being developed by Rocksteady games as previously thought.
Harry Potter Magic Awakened is an upcoming Avalanche Game
Yes, that is true, as opposed to what was believed earlier today, the upcoming Harry Potter Magic Awakened is not being developed by Rocksteady games but by Avalanche Studios. Avalanche studios is the same team that developed Disney infinity series.
According to Eurogamer, this has been validated and it is certain now that Avalanche studios is behind the development of the game.
So if not Rocksteady and not a random internet stoner, then who else might be working on a Harry Potter role-player? Step up Utah-based Avalanche Software, which previously made the Disney Infinity series (not to be confused with the Swedish Avalanche Studios, of Just Cause fame). After the cancellation of Disney Infinity back in 2016, Avalanche was briefly closed but then bought up by... Warner Bros. Interactive.
Apparently, the developers reached out to Eurogamers and have confirmed their legitimacy. Sadly, nothing about a possible release date was said and we think it is far too early to even expect a release date. The game is under development and there is still a lot of ground to cover. The footage leaked earlier made it seem as if the game is nearing completion, however, the footage was very selective in what it showed and hence does not qualify as a standard to base our conclusions on.
Moreover, there is also some speculation regarding the final name of the game as it remains undecided for now. The rumor is that the upcoming game may not be called “Magic awakened” but instead “Magic Forever”. We don’t know how much truth there is to this rumor but it was started when Lizo mzimba, a renowned CNN reporter and Harry Potter enthusiast, tweeted the following tweet.
Am told this is from a yet to be announced RPG currently titled Harry Potter Magic Awakened, although other titles including Magic Forever are also in the mix. Other Potter games are also thought to be on the way @TomPhillipsEG @ComicBook #HarryPotterMagicAwakened #HarryPotter https://t.co/bgXliE0Hme
