Following the successful launch of Quidditch Champions, Warner Bros. Discovery has announced plans for a Hogwarts Legacy sequel. This highly anticipated follow-up to 2023's best-selling game will be a top priority for the company.
Hogwarts Legacy Sequel Confirmed: A "Biggest Priority" for Warner Bros. Discovery
A sequel to the phenomenal action RPG, Hogwarts Legacy – the best-selling Harry Potter game of 2023, boasting over 24 million copies sold – is officially in the works. Warner Bros. Discovery CFO, Gunnar Wiedenfels, revealed this news during Bank of America's 2024 Media, Communications & Entertainment Conference, as reported by Variety.
Wiedenfels stated that a Hogwarts Legacy successor is "one of the biggest priorities in a couple of years down the road," highlighting its significant potential for future growth.
Warner Bros. Games' David Haddad previously emphasized the game's remarkable replayability, a key factor in its success. Haddad noted the game's ability to let players "be themselves in this world, in this story," resonating strongly with fans and propelling Hogwarts Legacy to the top of the sales charts, a position typically held by established franchises' sequels. This innovative approach to the Harry Potter universe is what truly set Hogwarts Legacy apart.
Game8 was particularly captivated by the game's stunning visuals, calling it the most impressive visual experience a Harry Potter fan could hope for. [Link to Game8 Review - This would be replaced with the actual link]
