A Whole New World The land on which Hogwarts stands is full of many magical mysteries. This game has it’s own personality that sets it apart from the origins of the franchise, it feels authentic and rich with detail. It is clear that Hogwarts is in it’s earlier years, but the foundations of grandeur coziness remain familiar and comforting as you walk its corridors.

I won’t spoil too much of the story for you, but I can say without a doubt, that it is extremely gripping. However, you have the option to switch houses if you so choose. If you have linked your Wizarding World account to your device, your house will be automatically determined.
