Starting as a fifth-year student, you'll journey through both new and familiar locations, encounter magical beasts, brew potions, master spell-casting, enhance your talents, and customize your character to become the witch or wizard of your dreams. The game will launch on the Nintendo Switch 2 on the console's release date, June 5.
