Warner Bros. Games is bringing the LEGO Harry Potter Collection to Nintendo Switch 2 on Oct. 16, priced at $49.99 and available to preorder now in both physical and digital formats, according to Variety‘s gaming news roundup.
The package bundles two games under one purchase: LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 and LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7. Years 1-4 draws from the first four films in the franchise, letting players work through Harry’s early days at Hogwarts. Years 5-7 covers the back half of the saga – Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, and both parts of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – closing out the story with the final showdown against Voldemort.
Both titles were developed by Warner Bros. Games, TT Games and The LEGO Group, and the Switch 2 collection folds in every downloadable content pack released for either game previously. That’s notable for anyone who’s been waiting to jump into the series fresh rather than track down individual DLC purchases across storefronts – this is meant to be the complete package in one go. It’s also worth checking our Switch 2 bundle and pricing breakdown if you’re still deciding which console configuration makes sense before adding another title to the cart, and fans keeping an eye on the Wizarding World’s future should look at our coverage of Hogwarts Legacy 2’s confirmation for where Warner Bros. is taking the license next.
Here’s the context: the practical value here is straightforward. Switch 2 owners get both LEGO Harry Potter games, plus their DLC, in a single purchase rather than piecing together a decade-old catalog across multiple listings. The physical edition puts both games on one key card, and the digital edition mirrors that same combined package.
Honestly, Variety’s report doesn’t give us grounds to call this a technical showcase or a meaningful signal about Nintendo’s broader third-party strategy – there’s no mention of performance targets, resolution bumps, or Switch 2-specific features here. What’s confirmed is simpler and still useful: a complete, DLC-inclusive compilation lands on a new platform at a set price and date. If you’re weighing how this stacks up against other recent Switch 2 ports, our look at Oblivion Remastered’s Switch 2 release covers a title where the technical specifics were actually part of the announcement – a useful contrast in how much detail publishers choose to share at launch.
The rundown of what’s confirmed:
- Release date – Oct. 16, 2026
- Price – $49.99
- Formats – Physical and digital editions
- Physical package – Both games included on a single key card
- Included content – All previously released downloadable content packs
- Games included – LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 and LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7
What to watch: the next concrete checkpoint is the Oct. 16 launch itself. Preorders are live now, so the physical single-key-card setup and digital availability are both things worth revisiting once the collection actually ships and players can confirm the download requirements and install footprint firsthand.
