Gunnar Wiedenfels, the CFO of Warner Bros. Discovery, made a suggestion in a recent interview that a Hogwarts Legacy sequel might be in the works. Tens of thousands of players continue to join Hogwarts Legacy each month, a testament to the potential of a game like this.

This argues for expanding the game's universe and time period as well as creating a sequel to the first one. Hogwarts Legacy is still selling incredibly well more than a year after it was released, despite not being regarded as canon. The game defeated strong competitors like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Baldur's Gate 3, which also happened to win Game of the Year, to become the best-selling title of the year in the US market in 2023.

Warner Bros. Discovery CFO Gunnar Wiedenfels said that creating a sequel is one of the company's top goals in a few years when questioned about the franchise's future in an interview with Variety. This provides a positive glimpse into the franchise's future, even though he did not clarify if the sequel is now in development or if there are any obvious clues that could even vaguely hint to an anticipated release date.

Warner Bros. Discovery's Top Priority Is a Hogwarts Legacy Sequel

Aside from Hogwarts Legacy and its follow-up, President of Warner Bros. Interactive David Haddad also spoke about the future of the Harry Potter gaming universe, stating that the company would maintain momentum with the release of Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions, which would incorporate elements from earlier games. After the game's release, reviews suggest that players are divided on whether to love it or not, depending on a few key factors.

In addition, Haddad revealed that Warner Bros. Interactive has other plans for future Harry Potter games that "will let fans be a part of this world and stories and characters in deeper and deeper ways". It's unclear just how the firm intends to accomplish this, but it's definitely fantastic news for fans everywhere.

Hogwarts Legacy is still a game where people are finding new things to like, thus a sequel isn't necessary to come out right now. Even though the game is still relatively new, more people are joining up every day to enjoy their first experience and pick up the basics. It will be intriguing to see what Warner Bros. Interactive develops in the following months. We'll also be watching for any significant developments about the long-awaited Director's Cut and the sequel to Hogwarts Legacy.
