and Jam City are all set to launch their new Harry Potter mobile RPG game for Android and iOS, with a release date being confirmed. Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery is a mobile role-playing game set in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter universe, that puts you in the shoes of a new student at Hogwarts. Big fans of the books' and movies' dynamic trio, however, may be disappointed to know that the story of the game is set sometime between Harry Potter's birth and enrollment into Hogwarts, so it's unlikely we'll get to see him, Ron, and Hermione. This indie title is a playful homage to the beloved Harry Potter games from the PlayStation 1 era. Developed by the Szymanski brothers—David, who previously created the acclaimed indie first-person shooter Dusk, and John and Evan, known for the survival horror title My Friendly Neighborhood—the game is described as a good-natured parody of the classic Harry Potter PS1 experiences.
