Gamers got a glimpse of Warner Bros.’s Harry Potter RPG nearly two years ago, but the company has yet to officially speak out about the game. Despite this, one Reddit user believes he may know when the game is launching.
Fans have been waiting to get any official word on the game since the footage of the Harry Potter RPG had leaked, but Warner Bros. has been strangely silent on the project. The Harry Potter RPG was seemingly confirmed when a Character Vault guide was photographed at the Avalanche Studio Group’s office on a character designer’s desk, reigniting the buzz around the game. Now, one Reddit user posted information that may give fans a projected release time for the game they’ve been waiting for.
According to u/CorGrahven on Reddit, Warner Bros. is in talks with one of their distribution companies to have subtitles ready for one localization of a Harry Potter game for 2021. The user did not name the country, the distributor company, or the language of the subtitles requested, but he did believe that this information relates to the game that leaked alpha footage was showcasing. Warner Bros. has remained silent on the game.
Not much is known about the game other than what was available in the leaked footage. From what fans could piece together, the game seems to allow players to create their own Hogwarts character and explore the iconic world with magical items and spells. The game will be set in a world 100 years before the story of Harry Potter and his nemesis Lord Voldemort, which gives players the chance to create their own stories. Along this same line of thinking, the game allegedly will allow players the option to choose whether they will become a good or bad witch or wizard as they learn new spells during their Hogwarts education.
While fans can’t be sure of anything about the game until Warner Bros. confirms it themselves, rumors that the Harry Potter RPG would’ve been at E3 this year seem to support this Reddit rumor. Hopefully Warner Bros. will confirm this game and give more concrete details about what else fans can expect to see from the game that they’ve been waiting for.
Harry Potter RPG is rumored to be in development at WB Games for unknown platforms.
