Hogwarts Legacy Sequel to ‘Coordinate’ with HBO’s Harry Potter Reboot

Hogwarts Legacy Sequel to ‘Coordinate’ with HBO’s Harry Potter Reboot

We know that a Harry Potter reboot is incoming, but one of the last big successes in the Wizarding World franchise has been the game Hogwarts Legacy which puts players in the shows of a Hogwarts student a hundred years before the events of the original Potter books.

The game came out last year, and Variety reports that a sequel is already in the works and is a ‘very big priority’ for WB. No details have been released about the game, but it’s said that the games team is currently ‘coordinating some of the big-picture storytelling elements’ with the HBO series—hopefully making one cohesive continuity.

When it comes to the canon of Hogwarts Legacy, the game doesn’t exactly follow the details of the films, but is more of a meshing of elements from both the books and the films. It would probably be difficult to keep the continuity consistent with the TV series as it goes along, but if they manage to pull it off, it would be one amazing coordinated feat.

Who knows, maybe they can even share assets between the game and series, which could make things easier on both productions. What’s important is that WB is thinking ahead when it comes to this franchise, and they already have the original eight films to set the bar in terms of quality and faithfulness to the source material.

Honestly, I was always on the team to just keep expanding the world, but with Fantastic Beasts dying out in the box office, it’s understandable that WB would want a sure one. I think that starting a new canon could ruin any fans who are already invested with the existing Potter films.

Then again, that’s just my opinion.

No release date has been set for the Hogwarts Legacy sequel, but the game is now playable for Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PC, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 4|5.
