Harry Potter GO Is COMING: Here's How It Might Work

With the overpowering success of Pokémon Go (we’re talking 15 million users worldwide), fans of the Potter franchise took to promoting the idea of 'Harry Potter Go' and went so far as to petition Warner Bros. 

Niantic, the creators of Pokemon Go also jumped on board with senior developer Marcus Figueroa stating, “the demand for this title was absolutely insane, so we figured we’d give it a shot.”

YES! 

So how do we think it might work? 

Ashtyn Hannon, originator of the petition, had a few ideas of her own:

Horcruxes

First up is horcruxes. You-Know-Who’s locket and diary won’t stand a chance when you search the game for the items to destroy them. Creatures would help us along the way, giving us tools like Floo Powder or Portkeys.

Dueling Club

Find your real life Malfoy then square up against them in a battle of wits and wands. Compete against friends (or foes!) and collect house points for rewards within the game. 

Potions

Then there will be potions. Just how incense and potions help you find Pokémon in Pokémon Go, potions would help you find horcruxes.
