Great news, Potterheads: The new AR mobile game is finally here.
Warner Bros. announced its new mobile game, Harry Potter: Wizards Unite, back in 2018, but promised it would be out this summer. And it’s kept that vow: The Verge reports that the game’s official Twitter page revealed the launch would begin this Friday, June 21. It also shared a new trailer.

And now, one day earlier than intended, Wizards Unite is officially available in the U.S. and the UK on iOS and Android.
It’s unclear when the game will be available everywhere. The Verge points out that Pokémon Go took an “unusually long time” to debut in certain countries, so the Wizards Unite announcement doesn’t tell much about which locations will be next.
The Week reports the game will include Pokémon Go-style missions, where the player can explore the real world for magical creatures and other elements from the Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
Keep your wand at the ready if Wizards Unite hasn’t reached your country yet.
