LEGO Harry Potter game official

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and TT Games officially announced LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4, the first game based on the popular Harry Potter book series re-imagined with the wonderful aid of LEGO blocks. Based on the first four Harry Potter books and movies that tell the story of Harry’s first four years at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 mixes LEGO gameplay and light-hearted humor in a retelling of the grandest moments from both the books and films.

LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 will give gamers the chance to experience Harry Potter in a new and uniquely LEGO way playing as Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, as well as other favorite characters. Players will attend lessons, cast spells, mix potions, fly on broomsticks and complete tasks to earn house points. Throughout the game, players will also have the freedom to explore familiar settings including Hogwarts castle, Diagon Alley, the Forbidden Forest and the village of Hogsmeade.

Look for more details this week from E3. LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 is being developed by TT Games and will be published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and is scheduled for release in 2010. Platforms are to be announced.
