Watching the gameplay showcases back in November then it looked like a very interesting game, and this is from someone indifferent at best to Harry Potter (I read any number of trashy fantasy novels, and good ones too, but the books never did much for me and films I saw because they were on in the background when visiting friends). Nice hybrid between guided story and open world, and looks like they very much tried to keep it within the lore.
General premise is it is set rather before any films, prequels or mainline books and you are a student on something of an accelerated timeline (rather than making you level up over years of in game time), exploring, factions, solving mysteries, clubs...
It is however out now and seemingly having a lot of buzz around it.
