Long-rumoured Harry Potter RPG could come out next year

Back in 2018, footage leaked of what was claimed to be an upcoming Harry Potter RPG. What little footage was shown excited fans as the game was said to feature character creation, a morality system, and a fully explorable world set 100 years before the events of Harry Potter. Though the game was never confirmed to exist, its release may not be too far away, as according to one person allegedly in the know, the RPG will be releasing in 2021.

This information comes from Reddit user ‘CorGrahven’ who claims that the release window has leaked thanks to communications between Warner Bros. and a localisation team. The request from Warner Bros. concerned the need to localise a Harry Potter game with a 2021 release date.

For the sake of anonymity, neither the country, language, nor distribution company were given, though ‘CorGrahven’ was apparently vetted and verified to be a voice actor who has performed in a number of adverts, while operating under “a group dubbing game trailers.”

This suggestion of a 2021 release date isn't unfounded, as a few months ago, in the wake of E3’s cancellation, Jason Schreier reported that Warner Bros. were planning to officially unveil the Harry Potter RPG at what would have been this year’s E3 event.

With Warner Bros. yet to make any official statement on neither E3’s cancellation, nor the leaked RPG, it’ll be interesting to see when the publisher will finally choose to speak up. Could the game make an appearance at PlayStation’s upcoming next-gen event? Time will tell.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
