Harry Potter & The Half-Blood Prince Video Game Trailer Showcases Darker Plot

Those of you who have read the Harry Potter books will know that the franchise takes a turn for the dark-side in the penultimate novel, Harry Potter & The Half-Blood Prince, as Master Potter and Dumbledore make preparations to thwart the fast approaching threat of Voldemort. It’s a trait which has clearly been taken seriously by EA’s video game adaptation of the movie as the trailer looks notably moody.

The Harry Potter games have actually been really good in the past, so there’s quite a bit of excitement on our part for this one. The game is due out at the end of this week.

    Hey it does seem dark doesn't it. I'm glad they haven't toned it down. The books can be quite gloomy in places. It's nice to see them follow that theme in the movies/games.
  • Yeah. I think there was always the danger that they'd tone down the movies/games in order to make them more sellable to a child audience. Alas, I'm really pleased to see them honour the source.

    Harry Potter is a dark, dark universe.
