The Harry Potter title was initially slated for 2021, but it was later pushed back to 2022 and then 2023. If you’re on a current-gen console, you can actually purchase the Deluxe Edition and get the game 72 hours ahead of release.

The game is obviously attached to J.K. Rowling’s Wizarding World, and while she isn’t creating this game, she does get royalties from it. If you want to learn more about Rowling and her inappropriate stances in the transgendered community, check out this resource.
