Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is next up from the maker of 2016's massive urban exploration smartphone game Pokémon Go, and will launch in 2018. The official Harry Potter franchise portal, Pottermore, offered further confirmation that fans of the Pokémon Go approach and the Potter setting will be pleased. The game will use Augmented Reality smartphone technology so that "a player can view the real world through a wizarding world lens." Over 150 Pokémon from the series' first few games, 1996's Pokémon Red and Pokémon Green, were included with the game at launch, and Harry Potter has a broad bestiary of beings to source from too. Other more supernaturally derived life forms have remained prominent throughout the books and their movie interpretations, and could be expected to form part of the Wizards Unite experience.
