Hogwarts Environmental Lead Boston Madsen has lived the life of a huge Harry Potter fan. To learn more about our version of Hogwarts, I had to go to an expert. But just as important are the opportunities to experience hundreds of memorable moments, small and large, that fans grew up with and know by heart: from being Sorted in the Great Hall, exploring a new secret chamber in Hogwarts, or impersonating others with Polyjuice Potion to protecting innocents from a dangerous troll, dodging fireballs from a Hungarian Horntail, or soaring into the sky on the back of a friendly Hippogriff.”Īll of these elements are imperative to the experience, but at the center of it all is a fully explorable Hogwarts replete with secrets to discover and mysteries to unravel. Our resulting conversations could fill tomes, but when I asked him to settle it into two sentences, he told me, “The most ever-present part of the Wizarding World is its magic, and the playful nature and ‘realness’ of its distinct rules should fuel a surprising, dark mystery that tests the combined resources of those who discover it. One of the first things I did was ask Game Director Alan Tew what fans love and expect from the Wizarding World.
As Community Manager, it’s my pleasure to introduce you to a development team full of fans making an authentic wizarding world adventure. I’m still reeling that I get to work on a project that captures the magic, spells, beasts, people, stories, and wonder of the wizarding world. I joined Avalanche in late 2021, but the team had already been hard at work for many years.
