Niantic announces Harry Potter: Wizards Unite Pokemon GO-like AR Mobile Game


Harry Potter Wizards Unite

Remember Pokemon Go which brought many of the gamers to the streets hunting wild Pokemon? The makers of the same; Niantic in partnership with Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, and WB Games San Francisco’s development team has announced Harry Potter: Wizards Unite AR mobile game.

Pokemon Go brought in the change through exploration, exercise, and real-world social interaction and now Niantic aims to repeat the same feat with the J.K. Rowling’s sensation fictional stories of Harry Potter. The Harry Potter: Wizards Unite lets you finally step into the wizarding world and experience the fantasy that I grew up personally.

The game will turn your neighborhood into landscapes filled with magical creatures, spells to learn, powerful enemies, to take down, team up with your friends to explore the Potter world because this might be closest we can get to it. It being an AR game, will make you come out of the home and have a community aspect to it. As excited as we are, there isn’t much info at the moment on how the game would function and what tasks it might feature.

Niantic didn’t announce a launch date just yet, but you can sign up here for the game to get notified.
