Hogwarts Legacy Studio Developing an "Online Multiplayer RPG"

Recent job listings from Warner Bros. Discovery and Avalanche Software suggest the two are teaming up on a brand-new Online Multiplayer RPG, sparking speculation that it could be the long-rumored sequel to Hogwarts Legacy. Following the massive success of the Wizarding World prequel, and with demand for more Harry Potter content still high, these postings offer hope for fans eager for the next magical adventure.

One of the best-selling games of 2023, Hogwarts Legacy allowed players to craft a custom character, attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and explore the mysteries of ancient magic amidst social unrest. Praised for its expansive magic system, open-world exploration, and original narrative, the game’s strong reception immediately fueled questions about when a follow-up might enter development. Now, after months of rumors pointing toward a potential multiplayer expansion, new career postings seem to hint that a sequel could already be in the works.

According to multiple listings, Warner Bros. Discovery and Avalanche are searching for a Lead Designer, Game Systems to join the development of an "Online Multiplayer RPG." The job description highlights a focus on "player progression, in-game economies, rewards, account systems, and game mechanics," with additional responsibilities involving "gameplay loops, meta systems, skill trees, crafting," and various monetization strategies. Given prior hints that Avalanche might pivot toward multiplayer experiences, many are connecting the dots — wondering if this is indeed the next chapter in the Hogwarts Legacy saga. Earlier job postings also pointed to new Wizarding World content, with requirements for a "deep understanding of the wizarding world," further fueling speculation. While there’s still no official confirmation linking these positions directly to a Hogwarts Legacy sequel, excitement among players is growing.

Hogwarts Legacy 2 Could Feature Online Multiplayer 🎮

Following reports that a planned Hogwarts Legacy DLC was quietly canceled, fans have been hopeful that the content might instead be rolled into a full-fledged sequel. Avalanche Software has yet to announce any major new projects, so the timing of these job listings feels particularly significant. Whether this Online Multiplayer RPG turns out to be Hogwarts Legacy 2 remains to be seen, but it wouldn’t be surprising to see a blockbuster hit like Hogwarts Legacy evolve with a multiplayer twist.

Demand for more Wizarding World games remains strong, with updates to Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery and the upcoming Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions keeping the fanbase energized. Players eager for news on a potential sequel or any major Wizarding World announcements should stay tuned — it looks like there’s still plenty of magic ahead. ✨🧙‍♂️
