Warner Bros. Discovery’s video game division has seen immense success with the release of Hogwarts Legacy, selling 24 million copies across all consoles and PC in just 18 months. The company’s chief financial officer, Gunnar Weidenfels, confirmed that a sequel to the Harry Potter-inspired title is at the top of their wish list.
However, according to Gunnar Weidenfels, the sequel is still years away. The company’s focus on creating successful games is likened to the film business, where hits drive the industry. Weidenfels stated that the video game industry is a hit-driven business, making a successor to Hogwarts Legacy a priority for the company in the future.
The original game, developed by Avalanche Software, allowed players to create their own characters as students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, setting the stage for an enticing action RPG experience.
