Gameplay

Main article: Lego Harry Potter: Years 1–4 § Gameplay

Lego Harry Potter: Years 5–7's basis gameplay follows the standards of that of the previous game as adapted to the story of the last three books and four films, covering a wide range of new characters, locations and items.[8] The online play feature that appeared in Lego Harry Potter Years 1–4 is absent from the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of this game. Some additional quality of life changes were made, such as Wingardium Leviosa (for building and moving certain objects) no longer needing the spell to be selected to do said features.

Development

Directly after Years 1–4 was announced, it was speculated that a Years 5-7 would be released in the near future.[9] It was actually revealed to be planned for a holiday 2011 release on 19 May 2011 by an announcement by Warner Bros. and TT Games.[2] In the instruction booklet for various Lego Harry Potter 2011 sets, a page shows an ad for the game with Harry and Voldemort having a climactic duel (Harry casting Expelliarmus and Voldemort shouting Avada Kedavra, a scene from the final book/movie). During an exclusive gameplay session with TT Games, it was announced that there would be an iOS version to be released on the iTunes App Store later that same year. The cover art for the game was released on 1 September 2011. A few days after, they released a trailer featuring Voldemort and Bellatrix. Those two, and a third, are available on the official site.[10]

The game was released on the Mac App Store on 22 March 2012. On 3 May 2012, an iOS port of the DS game was released.[11] This version was ported to Android on 28 September 2016.[12]
