Warner Bros.’ game ‘Hogwarts Legacy’ sold 22M units in 2023, Variety reports

Warner Bros. Discovery’s 2023 video game “Hogwarts Legacy” broke 22M units sold by the end of the year, with roughly 2M of those unit sales occurring during the December holiday season, Variety’s Jennifer Maas reports. “But it’s not just the unit sold that I’m so proud of, it’s just that it delighted the fans so much,” Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment president David Haddad told Variety. “It brought Harry Potter to life in a new way for gamers where they could be themselves in this world, in this story. And that’s what the team at Avalanche set out to do when they were developing the game and I think that’s really why it resonated so well and remains the best-selling game of the year in the entire industry worldwide. That’s a position that typically is held by one of these incumbent’s sequel games and we’re so proud that we’ve been able to break into the top ranks.”
