Warner Bros. Discovery has announced the success of Hogwarts Legacy, which sold 22 million copies in 2023 and approximately 2 million copies in December alone.
Hogwarts Legacy is the bestselling game in the United States, ranking number one until November 2023. The numbers for December will be announced next week. If Hogwarts Legacy maintains its number one position, it will be the first time in about 15 years that a game other than Call of Duty or Rockstar Games has had the highest sales on the annual sales chart in the United States.
David Haddad, President of Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, stated that Hogwarts Legacy has revitalized the Harry Potter franchise, allowing gamers to embody themselves in a new form within the wizarding world. He expressed great pride in the game’s sales, considering that usually game sequels of Call of Duty and Rockstar Games dominate the sales charts in the United States.
Furthermore, David hinted at Warner Bros.’s plans to develop other components of the Harry Potter franchise into new games. One of these in development is the game Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions, which is currently in beta testing.
TLDR: Hogwarts Legacy, a highly successful game, has sold 22 million copies in 2023 and 2 million copies in December alone. It has become the top-selling game in the United States, surpassing other popular franchises. Warner Bros. plans to further expand the Harry Potter franchise with the development of new games, including Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions, currently in beta testing.
