Harry Potter: Magic Awakened Is A Free-To-Play Collectible Card Game MMO Coming To Mobile This Year

Warner Bros. Games announced that Harry Potter: Magic Awakened will be coming to Americas, Europe and Oceania this year. The game was released in China Mainland, Hong Kong and Macau. 

This mobile NetEase-developed title, which Warner Bros. Games describes as a “free-to-play immersive collectible card game and massively multiplayer wizarding dueling game featuring a blend of strategy roleplay,” has been live in China since last September. It’s been received quite well there; it topped local App Stores as the number one game in revenue. This means that if you are in America, Europe or Oceania and this game appeals to your interests, there might be another Harry Potter videogame you can play (assuming Hogwarts Legacy comes out this year). 

“Co-developed and co-published by Warner Bros. Games and NetEase Games, Harry Potter: Magic Awakened will launch globally later this year for iOS and Android as the latest title under Portkey Games, the label dedicated to creating new mobile and videogame experiences inspired by the Wizarding World that place the player at the center of their own adventure,” a press release reads. 

Harry Potter: Magic Awakened lets you take on the role of a Wizard/Witch as you explore a new world. As you might expect, Warner Bros. Games says you’ll run into original Harry Potter characters and new faces alike. As you progress through the story, you’ll learn spells and charms that you cast in the form of cards. You’ll need to accumulate magical knowledge to master these spells and create unique strategies and card combinations to win duels. As with any school year, Hogwarts will offer many challenges, as well as duels against other students and plenty of magic lesson. 

If you live in the Americas, Europe, or Oceania, you can pre-register for Harry Potter: Magic Awakened starting today on Google Play or the game’s official website. You will receive exclusive benefits when Harry Potter: Magic Awakened hits mobile this year. Once players have reached the highest pre-register tier, they will be eligible for additional rewards, such as in-game currency or cosmetics and even a Niffler Card.
