For as fun as Hogwarts Legacy was, there was one major feature of the wizarding world that was noticeably absent from the game. Despite featuring the ability to fly on broomsticks, and even soar through a Quidditch arena, you couldn’t actually play this magical game. That’s where Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions, a new game, comes in. Very little has been shared about the game since its announcement; however, there are a few details worth going over before mounting up and trying to catch that elusive Golden Snitch. Here’s everything we know about Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions.
Release date
Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions will launch on September 3, 2024.
Platforms
You can look forward to playing Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions on just about every possible platform. It is coming to PC (via Steam and Epic Games Store), PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch. It will also be available on PS Plus on day one.
Trailers
The official reveal trailer only shows CGI footage of new and returning characters from the Harry Potter franchise engaging in the fictional sport. We do see a variety of fields that suggest multiple locations to play, but not much else can be gleaned from this footage.
Gameplay
Details are extremely sparse, but the developers have stated that Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions will be primarily a competitive multiplayer experience. If it follows the rules of the game as they were written in the books, then you could expect a seven-on-seven experience where teams score points in various ways using the different balls and hoops on the field. Of course, the game only ends when one team catches the Golden Snitch.
Preorder
You cannot preorder Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions yet, but you can at least wishlist it on the platform of your choice via the official site.
