If you're a Potterhead, you know that the number 7 holds a special significance in the world of Harry Potter—from the seven books in the series to the seven original horcruxes created by Voldemort. It's fitting then, that we're celebrating the 7th anniversary of Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, the game that lets you live out your own magical journey at Hogwarts.
Seven Years of Spells, Duels, and Detentions!
Since its launch in 2018, Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery has allowed players to craft their own stories within the Wizarding World, complete with memorable encounters like those awkward corridor run-ins with Merula. Fresh off winning a Webby Award last year for its Beyond Hogwarts expansion, the game is marking its 7th anniversary with an array of exciting rewards.
Let's dive into what's planned for the Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery 7th anniversary celebration. First up, there's an Anniversary Sweepstakes running through April. Simply log in and check your in-game postbox for a chance to win a Butterbeer and Mugs Gift Set, a Magnet Bottle Opener, and a Harry Potter Mystery Box.
Additionally, three pairs of tickets to Harry Potter and the Cursed Child on Broadway are up for grabs. Start logging in daily from April 25th to May 8th for your shot at these coveted tickets.
The Hogwarts Diary storyline has taken a spooky turn, with mysterious disasters plaguing the castle and whispers that the school's founders might be involved. You can explore this chilling plot right now.
Over at the Creature Reserve, things are getting interesting with two Horned Serpents now roaming the grounds, which is quite unusual. Plus, keep an eye out for a new spiny, ocean-dwelling creature set to join your collection soon.
