A new multiplayer Quidditch game has just been announced

This explains why Hogwarts Legacy didn't have Quidditch in it despite the fact that the fictional sport plays a huge role in the Wizarding World franchise.


If you're one of those wondering why Hogwarts Legacy didn't have Quidditch, Warner Bros. Discovery just gave the answer.

We should've known that Warner Bros. Discovery had a good reason for not including Quidditch in Hogwarts Legacy.

As per the latest announcement, Unbroken Studios has been working on a fast-paced, competitive multiplayer game based on the popular Wizarding World sporting title for several years.

But, while Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions comes on the heels of the success of Hogwarts Legacy, the FAQ describes the game as a "complete, standalone Quiddtch experience" that will see players engage each other, "in the sport of Quiddtch and other broomstick adventures alongside friends in a competitive multiplayer setting.

Quidditch Champions will take a page out of Hogwarts Legacy's book by letting players customize their characters.

Quidditch Champions doesn't have a release date at the moment but players can already line up to playtest.

Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions is said to have been in development for several years already.

Hogwarts Legacy outdid company expectations earlier this year after selling more than 12 million copies in two weeks. But, the open-world Harry Potter RPG title is just the start of Warner Bros. Discovery's decision to come back to the Wizarding World. In addition to porting Hogwarts Legacy to the PS4 and Xbox One as well as the Nintendo Switch and Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions, a new live-action adaptation of the award-winning book series is coming to Max with J.K. Rowling as the executive producer.

The controversial author of the Wizarding World also appears to be involved in Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions in some way.

Given that J.K. Rowling is firmly back in the spotlight again, it'll be interesting to see if Quidditch Champions will struggle with the same issues that plagued Hogwarts Legacy, especially close to its release date.
