''Harry Potter: Wizards Unite'' was an AugmentedReality game developed for mobile devices developed by Niantic and published by Creator/WarnerBrosInteractiveEntertainment under its Creator/PortkeyGames subsidiary, which is dedicated solely to games "inspired by" the ''Franchise/HarryPotter'' universe. Similar in style and gameplay to ''VideoGame/PokemonGO'' and ''VideoGame/{{Ingress}}'', ''Wizards Unite'' had players take on the role of volunteers in a Ministry of Magic task force. Their mission? Get to the bottom of a massive conspiracy that threatens the Statute of Secrecy and will lead to the exposure of the wizarding world to Muggles across the world. Said conspiracy involved the theft of objects, creatures, and even fellow wizards (called foundables), which were randomly scattered across the world and guarded by potent magical guardians in the form of wizards or monsters (called confoundables).

* OurDragonsAreDifferent: Dragon oddities were one of the most anticipated features in the game, eventually being added in September 2019 for the Day of the Dragons event. All four dragon species were available worldwide in September 2020, as well. Four dragon species were also added as Feared Adversaries in a late 2020 update, being some of the strongest enemies that a player can face.
