Niantic teases Harry Potter: Wizards Unite with some bizarre new footage

Niantic continues to build hype for its next AR project, Harry Potter: Wizards Unite with a brand new teaser video. Mysterious footage depicting riderless Nimbus 2000s surfaced on the internet today, before a message from the Statute of Secrecy Task Force called on witches and wizards worldwide to enlist to prevent more magical artifacts from escaping into the Muggle world.

Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is expected to launch in 2019 on both iOS and Android, but Niantic is keeping quiet on other details for now. We have a few ideas for how it will play, but all we really know is that it will be an AR experience in a similar vein to Pokemon GO.

In the meantime, eager fans can visit the game’s official website and sign up for e-mail updates as new details continue to trickle out.
