Harry Potter: Magic Awakened releases new trailer

Harry Potter Magic Awakened releases new gameplay trailer detailing its magical RPG proposal

NetEase Games dropped a brand new trailer today for their upcoming role-playing mobile title Harry Potter: Magic Awakened. The company announced the game a while ago as we would be getting a different take on the world of Hogwarts through an entirely different viewpoint and gameplay, but at the time they didn’t have much to show. This latest trailer, while not completely showing off what the game is about, does show some of what it has to offer as players from around the globe will be taking part in the life and activities of the wizarding school. We have a little more info for you below along with the latest trailer so you can get a taste of what’s to come. The game will be available across multiple platforms, including iOS, Android, and PC, with cross-progression so you can keep your character going between different consoles, with it set to be released globally sometime this year.

The game is set several years after the novel, and you play as a new student at Hogwarts. It then will follow your adventure to become a full-fledged first-class Wizard. Through both school life and adventures outside of the academy, you’ll gain experience and become better and better at wielding your magical abilities until you master all of them. It will feature an entirely new storyline created with the help of the original novel series author, J.K. Rowling.

You can expect all the classics here. Quidditch, the different houses of Hogwarts, the creatures and oddities that the novels and movies both cover, and likely even the same villains or at least cameos from them. And, of course, you can expect to get some help from prominent members of the cast of the series as well, so there’s plenty of fanservice on offer here as well.
