Pottermore coming to Playstation Home in April



We are excited to announce a whole new way to experience Pottermore, with Pottermore at PlayStation Home.

We’ve been working side by side with Sony to take a selection of beautifully illustrated Moments from Pottermore.com and translate them onto Playstation® 3’s free virtual 3D gaming platform, to bring you a brand new experience: Pottermore at Playstation Home.

For our readers who are not familiar with it, PlayStation Home is a free 3D gaming community for Sony’s PlayStation 3, where gamers play and socialise with their friends around the world.

Our latest development from Pottermore enables you, as a PlayStation 3 user, to actually step inside Diagon Alley™ and board the Hogwarts™ Express as your own customisable avatar. Once inside these 3D environments, you can also enjoy four new mini-games: experience the mayhem of Book Herding, test your knowledge with a Pottermore quiz, share and collect Pottermore Trading Cards, and take part in an illicit Wizard’s Duel.

If you have a Playstation Home account you’ll be able to actually step inside Diagon Alley™ and board the Hogwarts™ Express as an Avatar, and once inside these 3D environments, experience the mayhem of book herding, test your knowledge with a Pottermore quiz, share and collect Trading Cards, and take part in an illicit Wizard’s Duel.

There’s the choice to customise your avatar with a selection of outfits ranging from uniforms to house robes or more causal wizard attire. And there’s a selection of 14 owls, cats or toads from which to purchase a companion.

If you have progressed past Chapter Seven of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone on Pottermore.com, and have been sorted into one of the four Hogwarts houses, you’ll be able to link up your Pottermore.com account to your PlayStation Network ID and gain access to additional content and spaces.

Pottermore at PlayStation Home arrives in April, and if you’re curious to see what this new 3D experience of Pottermore will be like, take a look at this short trailer.

Does anyone still care about Pottermore? I'd rather have a full-out MMORPG.

brownxeyedxdork 18th-Mar-2013 11:43 pm (UTC)
I remember everyone freaking out about not getting the email invitations.
snapiphany 18th-Mar-2013 11:31 pm (UTC)
I haven't even glanced at Prisoner of Azkaban yet.
sandstorm 18th-Mar-2013 11:42 pm (UTC)
It's out?
snapiphany 18th-Mar-2013 11:45 pm (UTC)
I thought so. Either the first few chapters or the whole thing, I dunno.
twowaymirrrors 19th-Mar-2013 01:11 am (UTC)
Oh, I didn't even know it's out. I don't think I even looked at CoS yet.
deja_vu822 19th-Mar-2013 01:16 am (UTC)
it's only the first few chapters and has been for like months so it's best you haven't.
xkyrie_eleisonx 18th-Mar-2013 11:31 pm (UTC)
I care about it kind of. I enjoy going through the chapters when they're released.

They really did drop the ball on it, though.
powerbottom 18th-Mar-2013 11:32 pm (UTC)
Imagine a harry potter MMO, I'd cry.
loverelapse 18th-Mar-2013 11:38 pm (UTC)
like come the fuck on, grown ass people are still waiting for their hogwarts letter. why would they create pottermore as anything other than a mmorpg?
vehiclesshockme 18th-Mar-2013 11:32 pm (UTC)
I got an email from Pottermore earlier today (I'm assuming about this) and I didn't even bother to open it and just deleted it. Pottermore was so disappointing.
rushing_wind 19th-Mar-2013 12:18 am (UTC)
I seriously just did the same thing.
poli_jerk 19th-Mar-2013 12:53 am (UTC)
I did the same thing
twowaymirrrors 19th-Mar-2013 01:11 am (UTC)
lol so did I
violue 19th-Mar-2013 01:13 am (UTC)
It really was.

Plus I mean I got sorted into Slytherin, that stung.
miuratenshi 19th-Mar-2013 09:22 pm (UTC)
Lol I'm still pissed about being in Slytherin.
eerilybeloved 19th-Mar-2013 01:27 am (UTC)
I do this every time I get an email from them. Such a complete letdown.
sexyvegeta 19th-Mar-2013 06:42 am (UTC)
I just wanted to get sorted and then leave. lol
noapologiesx 18th-Mar-2013 11:32 pm (UTC)
I'd rather have a full-out MMORPG.

mte. A good Harry Potter MMORPG would be the greatest. Even though it would probably destroy my life because I wouldn't get anything done ever again.
goldengal1193 18th-Mar-2013 11:33 pm (UTC)
Haha I remember when everyone was dying to get into Pottermore, and there was a post on ONTD and people were pressed when they didn't get an email. I remember when I first got the email, I was so happy. Once I got sorted(Slytherin), I didn't really enjoy it though.
loverelapse 18th-Mar-2013 11:39 pm (UTC)
lol i remember someone raging on me because i had created two accounts? anyway, what up housemate.
goldengal1193 19th-Mar-2013 12:49 am (UTC)
LOL yes. I forgot people were getting crap for creating multiple accounts.
sandstorm 18th-Mar-2013 11:43 pm (UTC)
Well after being put into the best house, the rest of it is kind of downhill.
mrsdracula 19th-Mar-2013 12:34 am (UTC)
I was really invested in the first housecup (didn't we slytherins win that?) and got like one million points. But it wasn't all that great and I forgot both my username and password - so I can't even log in anymore
twowaymirrrors 19th-Mar-2013 01:13 am (UTC)
Yeah I was super excited and then after I got sorted and started going through the chapters I didn't care anymore. Such a disappointment.
cruel_idol 18th-Mar-2013 11:34 pm (UTC)
Just when I got rid of my ps3 they do this...they would.
saintvlas22 19th-Mar-2013 03:31 am (UTC)
Why would you do that???

It only does EVERYTHING i.e I'm too lazy to get a Blu-Ray player.
cruel_idol 19th-Mar-2013 03:34 am (UTC)
I am going to be that person that gets a PS4 and regrets it completely that is why :X

I'm serious.

I.Am.Getting.A.PlayStation 4.

honestly. Pottermore was such a letdown after all the hype.
piratesswoop 18th-Mar-2013 11:35 pm (UTC)
oh is this thing still around?
h0tfuss 18th-Mar-2013 11:35 pm (UTC)
