Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix goes mobile

As bookshops all over the land prepare to crank up the Potter hype this summer for the last book in J.K. Rowling's series, you might've noticed that there's a new Harry Potter film coming out too: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

EA Mobile has the rights to produce a mobile game based on the film, which sees Harry joining up with a secret student society called Dumbledore's Army, which aims to take on the Dark Arts.

The publisher's UK studio has developed the game, which is a spiffing-looking action-adventure that, judging by the screenshots, involves adventuring around realistic-looking Hogwarts locations, and doubtless battling a few beasties, too.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is due out later this month to tie in with the movie. Click 'Track It!' for a wizardy alert when we review it.
