Warner Bros. Discovery Confirms Hogwarts Legacy Sequel
A Sequel Expected Within Two Years
During Bank of America's 2024 Media, Communications & Entertainment Conference, Warner Bros. Discovery CFO Gunnar Wiedenfels confirmed plans for a sequel to Hogwarts Legacy, the Harry Potter-themed action RPG that has sold over 24 million copies since its release. Variety reported Wiedenfels stating that a sequel is a "top priority" for the company within the next couple of years, significantly contributing to the games division's projected growth.
Warner Bros. Games' David Haddad previously highlighted the game's remarkable replayability as a key factor in its success, noting its appeal to players who have enjoyed multiple playthroughs. Beyond sales figures and replayability, Haddad emphasized the game's unique ability to immerse players in the Harry Potter universe, allowing them to experience the story as themselves. This resonated strongly with fans, propelling Hogwarts Legacy to the top of the sales charts, a position typically occupied by established franchises' sequels.
