If you're a true Potterhead, you're well aware that the number 7 holds a special significance in the world of Harry Potter, from the 7 books in the series to the 7 horcruxes Voldemort intentionally created. And now, as we celebrate the 7th anniversary of Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, the game is rolling out a series of exciting events and rewards that are anything but generic.
Seven Years of Spells, Duels, and Detentions!
Since its launch in 2018, Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery has allowed players to create their own unique journey through the Wizarding World, complete with memorable encounters like those awkward run-ins with Merula in the corridors. Fresh off winning a Webby award for its "Beyond Hogwarts" expansion last year, the game is marking its 7th anniversary with a slew of celebratory rewards.
Let's dive into what's on offer during the Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery 7th anniversary celebration. Kicking things off, 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. To enter, log in daily from April 25th through May 8th; it's an opportunity you won't want to miss.
The Hogwarts Diary storyline has taken a spooky turn, with strange disasters plaguing the castle and rumors suggesting the school founders might be involved. This intriguing plot is available to explore now, so don your detective hat and start investigating.
Over at the Creature Reserve, things are getting even more exciting with the addition of two Horned Serpents, which is certainly out of the ordinary. Plus, a spiny, ocean-dwelling creature is set to join your collection soon.
