Never underestimate the power of a Harry Potter brand like Avalanche and Warner Bros. Games they announced that the magical legacy of Hogwarts has now sold more than 22 million copies worldwide. The news was announced in an interview for Variety with the president of Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment’s David Haddad, who revealed a spectacular figure. Hogwarts Legacy is now available on Nintendo Switch physically and digitally via the Nintendo eShop. Here’s what Mr. Haddad had to say to Variety.
“I’m not only proud of the unit sold, but just the fact that it has delighted the fans so much. It brought Harry Potter to life in a new way for players where they can be who they are in this world, in this story. And that’s what the team at Avalanche set out to do when they were developing the game, and I think that’s why it resonated so well and remains the best-selling game of the year in the entire industry worldwide. It’s a position usually held by one of this current player’s next games and we’re so proud to have made it to the top.”
