Warner Bros. has officially outed the LEGO Harry Potter game that an internal animator accidentally blew the trumpet on in March.
The game, dubbed LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4, covers the events of the first four books: The Philosopher's Stone, The Chamber of Secrets, The Prisoner of Azkaban and The Goblet of Fire.
LEGO clever clogs Traveller's Tales will develop and aims to release LEGO Potter next year.
The game will let us swap between each of the three main characters - Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley and Harry Potter - at least, and attend lessons, cast spells, mix potions, fly on broomsticks and earn points for school houses (presumably Gryffindor).
Action will take us to some of the most iconic locations of the famous books and films, such as Diagon Alley, the Forbidden Forest and the village of Hogsmeade.
The various press release quotes talk about an "open" and "wide-ranging" experience; one that's got "new elements of exploration and depth". But we're also promised plenty of the action and humour now synonymous with the LEGO games.
Head over to Eurogamer TV for the very first LEGO Potter video.
No platforms are mentioned, but the LEGO games are typically spread across as many as possible.

*sigh*
This was inevitable the second WBIE bought Traveller's Tales... Ofc, we can expect LEGO Superman, LEGO Watchmen & LEGO #Insert further Warner property here# to be announced over the coming week. |

@ Eraysor: seconded - I bought TONS of games/hardware (including an Xbox) in my first year at uni. It's third year when you're skint and weeping in the gutter, giving handjobs for petty cash.
@ Optimaximal: whilst I think some other WB brands will get the Lego treatment, I think they're being quite canny about it - I seem to remember TT saying they didn't want to do a Justice League game because it's hard to cope with characters like Superman & Wonder Woman, who can fly, etc. That said, Lego Watchmen would be ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. One of the minikits could be a shiny blue tadger. |

In honour of the constant recycling of the Lego games, I shall now re-post my earlier comment from the Lego Indy 2 news.
It must be great selling the same game over and over again, simply changing the visuals each time to match popular franchise x. Now give me £39.99. C'mon morons, pay up.
