It is worth remembering that, as it is a beta version, the producer itself Niantic, game developer Pokémon GO e Ingress Agent, warns that details such as design and graphics are not yet in their final versions and that bugs and other problems can happen.

Just like its previous game, the phenomenon Pokémon GO, in the new game the player must interact with elements of the universe of Harry Potter in the real world, through an augmented reality system.

The gameplay in Harry Potter: Wizards Unite will be similar to Pokemon Go. You will still be able to explore the real world map and interact with different locations.

You can also fight an enemy or help one of the fantastic monsters from the universe of Harry Potter to break free from traps.

If you launch the Beta after installing sideloading, you will not be able to play the United Wizards with all the features like in New Zealand. However, it is worth it for fans to download the APK because the following features are already available:
