For over twenty years, this popular story has been adapted into both video and tabletop games. Given its continued success as a major media franchise, and with a new TV series launching on HBO later this year, it’s expected that more games based on the story will be released through 2026.
While fans are waiting for news about Hogwarts Legacy 2, they can check out Harry Potter: Defenders of Hogwarts. This new board game, created by people who worked on the Harry Potter movies, could be the best Wizarding World tabletop game yet.
Harry Potter Defenders of Hogwarts is Officially Coming to Kickstarter
The new board game Defenders of Hogwarts, designed by the graphic artists behind the Harry Potter films – MinaLima – is shaping up to be a must-have for fans. Details are currently limited, but you can find what information is available on the game’s website, with a full campaign launching shortly.
In the game Defenders of Hogwarts, the magical school has been secretly invaded by dark wizards and their forces. You’ll have to pick a side: fight for your house and protect the school, or join the dark side to try and win. Your choice is important, because it will decide the future of Hogwarts.
The official game website offers this preview: Lord Voldemort is about to attack Hogwarts! Get ready by practicing your spells, discovering the secrets of the castle, and preparing for an epic battle between good and evil. Will you fight with Hogwarts as a loyal student, or join Voldemort and embrace the darkness? It’s up to you to decide.
Before creating Defenders of Hogwarts, Miraphora Mina and Eduardo Lima were famous for their detailed and faithful recreations of iconic locations from the Harry Potter films, including the sets for the Daily Prophet. Now, they’ve partnered with game designer David Waterman to bring Harry Potter fans a tabletop game that truly captures the magic of the series.
Defenders of Hogwarts is a game for 2 to 5 players. A typical game takes around 90 minutes to play, and it’s best suited for ages 13 and up due to its somewhat challenging gameplay.
The Kickstarter for Defenders of Hogwarts is launching soon and already has over 2,100 followers! If you’re a Harry Potter fan, be sure to sign up for launch notifications and learn how to get an exclusive pin.
