It’s no surprise that there’s lots of video game news this week. The industry expo, E3, is happening June 2 through 4 in Los Angeles, California. Today’s big news is the announcement by Warner Bros. and TT Games of LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4.
No details on platforms or a more specific release date than “2010”.

I wonder how this is going to work. Star Wars, Indy, and Batman all had decent amounts of action in them. Harry Potter, ehhhh…
Mischief, anyone!?! Bothering Snape!?! MmmmhmmmHMMM! I’m looking forward to this, mischief or not.
Didn’t look at the press release.
Harry Potter: Years 1-4 will give gamers the chance to experience the magic and adventure of Harry Potter in a uniquely LEGO way. Playing as Harry Potter, Ron Weasley™ and Hermione Granger™, as well as other favorite characters, gamers will have the opportunity to attend lessons, cast spells, mix potions, fly on broomsticks and complete tasks to earn house points. Throughout the game, players will also have the freedom to explore iconic settings from the wizarding world including Hogwarts castle, Diagon Alley™, the Forbidden Forest and the village of Hogsmeade™!
So it’s not going to follow the normal 6-levels per book/movie route? Sounds good.
