The above tweet is really important to analyze since the game is not only impacting its own market but also the Wizarding World website. The reason is that players are visiting the website to get their customized wands from Wizarding World. In addition, you need to connect your Wizarding World account to obtain some goodies from the game. Thus, the game is increasing the engagement of the website.
However, the biggest factor is that, due to the outstanding sales, the series will continue to grow despite the backlash from fans. Variety reports that player engagement from launch on Feb 10th to Feb 21st was more than 267 million hours played. The Wizarding World website’s traffic has increased by 300%, which helps them convert sales as well. All in all, in terms of PR the game has taken a hit, but in terms of sales, where it matters a whole lot, it is performing better than most would expect it to.
The game puts the players in the 1800s of the Wizarding World. It is set 100 years before the Harry Potter Franchise. There are a couple of references to the characters in Harry Potter that fans will notice while playing. In conclusion, we can expect a LOT of further iterations from the franchise to come out since the sales have more than outperformed the projections.
