Lego Harry Potter announced

News - Magiced onto stage

Warner Bros. Interactive have announced Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4 for 2010. The game promises to take players through the first four books of Harry's first four years at Hogwarts - hence the title. It looks to offer the usual mix of humorous scenarios and mind bending co-operative conundrums.

In addition to the usual Lego fare, here you get to play as Harry Potter, Ron Wesley or Hermione Granger. The puzzle and combat action is also spiced up somewhat with lessons, spells, potions and broomstick rides.

As Tom Stone, Managing Director, TT Games said, "With Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4 we are creating an open, wide-ranging experience within Hogwarts that is full of fun and LEGO magic. Harry Potter is one of the most beloved and well-respected characters, and we look forward to bringing gamers a new way of interacting in the universe with the LEGO games' great humour and exploration."

Although no platforms have been officially announced, we all know this will keep gamers happy on pretty much every platform known to man. More as we get it.
