7 Upcoming Licensed Video Games To Get Excited About

While the Harry Potter franchise is hardly lacking in video games - with each film installment sporting a movie tie-in - those titles were limited to following the film's plot and scope, not giving what everyone really wants...the freedom to be a student at Hogwarts.

Warner Bro Interactive holds a great track record of adapting their IPs: the Arkham series, Mad Max, and the most appropriate comparison, the Shadow of Mordor games. With that latter series, the titles were able to break free from Frodo and co, and tell an involving tale set in Tolkien's enthralling world, while not being a slave to it.

As Legacy is set in the late 1800s, far-flung from the plot of 'the boy who lived', it looks like gamers can inhabit the rich world of wizarding on its own merits, with the base game playing like a slick and impressive action RPG.
