One of the most successful new games of the year, Harry Potter: Magic Awakened generated $138 million in September. The game is also the most successful handheld adaptation of the Harry Potter IP to date, with the other two handheld games in the series being Niantic's Harry Potter: The League of Wizards and Jam City's Harry Potter: The Mystery of Hogwarts, which has generated $300 million in global revenue in its three years on the market.
