Harry Potter Magic Awakened is set ten years after the Battle of Hogwarts, where players will experience all the hallmarks of a wizarding education and embark on a new story where you’ll need both familiar and new characters alike.

As First-year students, players will be able to attend a rotating schedule of classes including Charms, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Care of Magical Creatures, History of Magic Divination, each with their own minigames, objectives and rewards.
