Warner Bros. Discovery has not officially announced a sequel to Hogwarts Legacy as of August 12, 2026. Despite mounting speculation ahead of the upcoming Gamescom 2026 event, the publisher has kept its plans firmly under lock and key. It seems conjuring a blockbuster video game follow-up requires a bit more than a simple waving of a wand.
No official confirmation has been shared by the publisher ahead of the trade show, leaving fans to wait for any actual sign of a return to the wizarding world.
The details
- Status: Unannounced as of August 12, 2026
- Context: Gamescom 2026 is approaching
- Original game: Hogwarts Legacy (2023)
The original 2023 game was a major commercial hit, making an eventual follow-up highly anticipated. But for now, those hoping to walk the halls of the academy once more will have to keep waiting for the publisher to actually write the next chapter.
