LEGO Harry Potter Collection Heading to Nintendo Switch 2 Next Month
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
The LEGO Harry Potter Collection is making its way to the Nintendo Switch 2 on October 16, 2026, though questions remain regarding an upgrade path for existing owners.
The Hogwarts adventure continues as Warner Bros. brings the LEGO Harry Potter Collection to the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2. According to a report by GameRant, the bundle featuring both Years 1-4 and Years 5-7 is scheduled to launch on October 16, 2026. Players can expect the same familiar brick-building gameplay and couch co-op experience, alongside the expected performance bumps native to newer hardware.
While the port promises smoother gameplay than its predecessor on the original Switch, a major question remains regarding digital ownership. Publisher details have yet to confirm if an upgrade path will be available for existing owners, meaning players who already bought the collection might face another full price tag of $49.99 for the native Switch 2 version. Without any substantial new features added to this release, current owners can easily skip this drop without missing out on fresh content.
Even with the lack of new features, this release keeps the franchise active as the community looks ahead to larger projects on the horizon. Avalanche Software has officially confirmed that Hogwarts Legacy 2 is in development, with potential ties to the upcoming HBO television series. Until then, this upcoming Switch 2 port serves as a bridge for players looking to revisit the magical castle on new hardware.
