Hogwarts Legacy is officially getting a sequel – but that's about all we know, as Warner Bros. quietly unveiled the follow-up action RPG in a letter to shareholders.
Yes, that's right – Hogwarts Legacy 2 is happening, although it's unclear what shape or form it'll take just yet… or when it'll come.
Warner Bros. reveals the "second installment of Hogwarts Legacy," as it writes, casually in a recent letter to shareholders, first detailing how "games remain an important growth lever as we work toward our long-term Studios segment goals." That's where the Hogwarts Legacy sequel comes in.
The company mentions LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight and mobile title Game of Thrones: Dragonfire, stating, "These releases marked the first launches under our refocused strategy centered around four key $1 billion+ franchises with disciplined investment behind fewer, higher conviction titles."
Although they don't mention what four franchises these are here, we do already know Harry Potter is one of them.
"We expect Games to more meaningfully contribute to segment profitability going forward as our pipeline expands, including the second installment of Hogwarts Legacy," Warner Bros. goes on to say – and, yes, that's sadly all we've got on Hogwarts Legacy 2 for now.
It's likely that we'll learn more about the Harry Potter-inspired game soon, though, seeing as this short mention of its existence will undeniably spur various discussions. Hogwarts Legacy's release three years ago was accompanied by debate due to the views of Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling. You can read our Hogwarts Legacy controversy explainer for the full story.
Until the game releases, wizarding fans have the Harry Potter TV series to look forward to, as it's bound to come sooner than Hogwarts Legacy 2 with its December 25 release date.
