Warner Bros. Discovery said a second Hogwarts Legacy game is part of its upcoming pipeline. The confirmation appeared in the company’s second-quarter 2026 shareholder letter, which discussed its gaming division.
The letter said games were expected to contribute more to segment profitability as the pipeline expanded, including with the second installment of Hogwarts Legacy. The company did not provide further details about the sequel.
What made the original popular
Released in 2023, Hogwarts Legacy gave players control of a fifth-year student with a mysterious connection to ancient magic. The story involved a conflict between goblins, dark wizards and others.
Players could attend potions class, visit Hogsmeade and explore Hogwarts. The game sold millions of copies, with its appeal including the chance to experience the Wizarding World outside the stories of the original books.
Release details remain unknown
Warner Bros. Discovery has not announced an official title, release date or platforms for the sequel. The shareholder letter offered no additional information about its story or development.
The original game’s setting was the 1890s, before the events involving the Chamber of Secrets, the Marauders and Harry, Ron and Hermione. The article does not say whether the next game will return to that period.
