Brooms at the Ready – Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions shows off gameplay

Believe it or not, September is a little over a month away, which means we’re also about a month from the latest Harry Potter game arriving in stores.

With digital pre-orders opening today for Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions on Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and PC, Warner decided to mark the occasion by showing off the game in action. As you can see in the trailer below, Quidditch Champions will include a career mode and online play, and you’ll be able to either choose from one of the series’ iconic characters or create your own. Interestingly, despite the fact that preorders allow you to get a few broom skins and other goodies, the press release below also notes that there are “no plans for microtransactions in the game at this time.”
