Pokemon Go Creators Are Working on a Harry Potter Game

Confirming Old Rumors
Curiously, rumors of a Niantic-made Harry Potter game has been around for over a year, ever since Niantic allegedly obtained the rights to a Harry Potter game in the middle of last summer's Pokemon Go craze. However, those rumors were debunked as "fake news" spread by a satire site.
While Techcrunch is reporting the news as real, we should note that neither Niantic nor WB Interactive have officially commented on the new games.
The news should intrigue a lot of Harry Potter fans, although Pokemon Go fans might not be as thrilled. After all, Niantic still hasn't worked out all the bugs in Pokemon Go, and players are likely worried that Niantic will stop devoting as much time and manpower to improving and adding new content to those games.
We'll provide updates about the new game once more information is available.
