Pokémon Go Creators Will Release a Harry Potter Mobile Game Next Year

The creators of Pokémon Go are launching a similar Harry Potter-themed augmented reality mobile game next year, giving muggles a chance to interact more directly with J.K. Rowling's wizarding world.

Niantic Labs, the augmented reality company behind the interactive Pokémon game, is set to launch Harry Potter: Wizards Unite in 2018, developing the game in partnership with Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment.
