Game Info
In the game of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, players will return to Hogwarts to help Harry survive a fraught sixth year.
He arrives to find Voldemort tightening his grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds and Hogwarts is no longer the safe haven it once was.
In Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince the Video Game, Harry suspects that dangers may even lie within the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him for the final battle that he knows is fast approaching...
Like earlier video game releases in the Harry Potter franchise, the action in Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince revolves around the exploration of Hogwarts and the action that results from what you uncover.
During their adventures, players will have a chance to engage in exciting wizard duels, mix and brew magical ingredients in potions class and take to the air to lead the Gryffindor Quidditch team to victory. Players may even get sidetracked by Ron’s romantic entanglements as they journey towards a dramatic climax and discover the identity of the Half-Blood Prince.
