Avalanche announced its involvement with Hogwarts
in a blog post on Sony’s website stating that The Portkey Games label provided us with a great opportunity to go back to Hogwarts in a totally different era. It is true that we continue to ask ourselves about how can we draw from the great library of creatures, characters and themes while imagining how all these details will be influencing the school before the arrival of Harry Potter. 

Do you know the headmaster? What influenced the society before Scamander, Tom Riddle? What problems did students go through? we believe what we are providing fans is a familiar thing but in a unique way.
