First of all, take this info with tons of salt.

Video footage of an upcoming Harry Potter RPG game has appeared on the Internet. The video (allegedly obtained from a focus group in America) looks really, really polished, showing a lot of characters, locations, spells, creatures and high production values.

There is no certainty about the study that would be developing the game. Avalanche Software (Disney Infinity) and Rocksteady Studios (Batman Arkham Knight) are the two most rumored studios that could be developing the game. Rocksteady is, in fact, property of Warner Bros.
