The list of recent video games around the Harry Potter universe is rather thin. Gamers fans of JK Rowling’s work have virtually no new titles to play on their video game consoles and controllers, except those in China. There, Harry Potter Magic Awakened is a real hit. Good news, the card game will soon land in Europe.
A hugely successful card game
Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and the NetEase studio had chosen to launch Harry Potter Magic Awakened, Harry Potter: magic emerges in its French version, in China. The role-playing card game was a real hit. Mobile gaming fans from the largest country in the East have simply rushed to video games to embody the sorcerer’s apprentices and Hogwarts professors on their smartphones.
Yes like HeartStone issu de Warcraft, Harry Potter – Magic Emerges is a card game. The player’s goal will be to learn the different spells and magic formulas, fight enemies through combination cards and gather allies in order to become even stronger. The gameplay makes the title a mixture of MMO, RPG and strategy game that pleases.
Again yes, it is a mobile game available on iOS and Android. Smartphones remain a more suitable platform for this type of video game. It is also not the first Harry Potter game to be released on mobiles. We remember the recent Harry Potter: Wizards Unite which, unfortunately, had fallen into oblivion before disappearing completely. Given its success with Chinese gamers, Harry Potter – magic emerges should not experience the same disastrous fate.
Coming soon to the West
After having conquered the Chinese lands, Harry Potter – the magic emerges thus prepares to arrive in the West. Trailers released by Warner Bros. Entertainment in the United States and several European countries testifies to this. In the videos, we see young Harry and his companions, including the imposing Hagrid, cast spells through cards. The graphics are quite nice and, it must be said, this is the only recent game to get your teeth into.
No release date
Although it is now certain that the title will be released in the West, its video release date has not been specified. Only the mention “soon” is visible on the Harry Potter trailer: the magic emerges. We will therefore have to wait for future statements from the studio in order to find out more. Note, however, that pre-registration is already open on the game’s official website. Pre-registration will entitle you to exclusive rewards. Click here to register.
Those who prefer to play the Harry Potter game on consoles will have to wait Harry Potter : Hogwarts Legacy. Its developer, Avalanche, promised in January to say more regarding the title this year. It will therefore be necessary to be patient before finding the young wizard on your consoles!!!
