When The Hogwarts legacy they got to 2023 and it pretty much gave them what fans have been asking for, the immediate question “is there more?” We could take potions class (without a monster of a potions master bullying us), go shopping in Hogsmeade, say ‘Revelio!’ 5 times a second and get lost in the astronomical tower. The game sold millions of copies, and immediately everyone wanted to know: when will we get another one?
Well, Warner Bros. Discovery has finally admitted that there is a second The Hogwarts legacy game on the way, confirming the sequel in an official letter to shareholders. This might not be the most exciting way to announce a return to Hogwarts, especially when we’d probably prefer a trailer with a dragon or two, but we’ll take what we can get. The original game took players back to the 1890s, long before the Chamber of Secrets was opened, long before the Marauders ran riot, and long before Harry, Ron, and Hermione were causing chaos at Hogwarts.
In its second quarter 2026 shareholder letter, Warner Bros. discussed on the future of its gaming division and dropped this rather important piece of information:
We expect Games to contribute meaningfully to segment profitability going forward as our pipeline expands, including the second installment of Hogwarts Legacy.

Collider · The sorting hat is pending Who Hogwarts House Are you? Eight questions · four houses · one classification
Four houses, one poem. The Sorting Hat has weighed on thousands of students and now it’s your turn. Answer honestly and find out where you stand at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The four houses
The Sorting Hat speaksYour house is selected
Gryffindor Gryffindor Tower · Scarlet and Gold Gryffindors don’t work because they are fearless. They work because some things are worth fearing.
You have nerve. Not the reckless kind, but the deep and quiet kind that comes up even when you’re scared, and especially then. You stand up for people when it would be easier to look away, and you go after what is right even when the odds are poor. That instinct has cost you before and you never decided it wasn’t worth it. Why choose this Hat
You speak up in the room where it costs you something.
You would rather be wrong and brave than right and quiet.
People come to you when something needs to be addressed.

The Sorting Hat was a practical puppet on screen before any digital work approached it.
Navy Actions first Stand up
Slytherin Slytherin Dungeon · Emerald and Silver At its best, this is the house of people who reject the boundaries that others set for them.
You are driven, sharp, and completely clear about what you want and how to get it. Slytherin has been misrepresented for a long time, painted as a house of criminals when in reality it rewards ingenuity and the patience to play a long game. You know your own worth, you protect yourself fiercely, and you’ve never needed anyone’s approval to aim high. Why choose this Hat
You think three go ahead and say one of them out loud.
You are loyal to a small circle and ruthless about the rest.
Being worthless always suits you.

Hufflepuff Hufflepuff Basement · Yellow and Black Not the safe house and not the house left. The house with the biggest heart.
You are the type of person who makes a place better just by being there. You turn up, you do the work, and you don’t need glory or credit for all of it, because you’re doing what’s right because it’s right. Your loyalty doesn’t waver when it’s tested, and that’s the only time loyalty means anything. Hufflepuff was never the consolation prize. Why choose this Hat
You are the one who remembers and follows through.
You do the unglamorous part that no one volunteers.
Your word never needed a backup.

Ravenclaw Ravenclaw Tower · Blue and Bronze Not just psychology. The love of learning, and the rare nonsense to say you don’t know yet.
Your mind is your best asset and you always knew it. Ravenclaws are the inquisitors, the ones who can’t leave a puzzle alone and find the company of a good book better than most rooms full of people. What characterizes the house is that it is not sensible, it wants to understand, and to be willing to admit the gap. You see things with clarity that others find confusing. Why choose this Hat
You would rather be corrected than comfortable.
You noticed what no one else in the room noticed.
You could never leave a question alone.

Evanna Lynch was cast as Luna from an open call of about fifteen thousand girls, after writing to Rowling as a fan.
The tower door asks for a riddle rather than a password, so a Ravenclaw can be locked out by thinking too slowly.
Luna, Flitwick and Rowena are all from Ravenclaw, which hits very close to home.

What do we know about ‘Hogwarts Legacy 2’?
Players took control of a fifth-year student – yes, as if admitting someone who was secretly hidden – who had a secret connection to ancient magic, and found themselves in a war between goblins, dark wizards and the rest.
The game was more than just a success – it was a cultural phenomenon. Despite fears that the game will sink without a trace due to speculation about a boycott over the J K Rowling controversy, it sold more than expected, with even non-Potterheads finding themselves enthralled by the game and a big part of the appeal was just being able to exist in the Wizarding World without following the story of the original books, while allowing you to behave like the kind of student Professor McGonagall would hate.
The second installment of The Hogwarts legacy confirmed by Warner Bros. Discovery, although an official title, release date, and platforms have yet to be announced. Stay tuned to Collider for the latest news and updates on the biggest and best movies and shows coming to your favorite streaming platforms soon.
