Wizard101 just got its console release date announced!

Today, renowned MMO publisher KingsIsle Entertainment announced that its most magical title, Wizard101, will launch on PlayStation and Xbox consoles on October 9th! 

Currently available on PC via Steam and through the Official Wizard101 website, the release of the family-friendly MMO on consoles invites a whole new generation of young wizards, alongside returning Ravenwood Academy alumni, to immerse themselves in the Spiral’s multitude of mystical worlds made of charming characters, fantastical environments, and magical gameplay.

Wizard101 will be available to download for free on Xbox and PlayStation consoles, where players can enjoy free content up to the recently expanded Free-to-Play area in the Oasis zone of Krokotopia. As players progress further, content can be unlocked through the purchase of Crowns, the Wizard101 in-game premium currency, or through the purchase of area Access Passes through the console storefront. 

Wizards will create a new account on Xbox or PlayStation, whichever console they would like to play on, and can play with Wizards around the world on all the consoles together on one server. Please note that this is a different server from our existing PC players, and we are unable to offer cross-progression on either server.

Wizard101 will launch on Nintendo Switch at a later date. Wizards who play on Nintendo Switch can purchase the game for $19.99 USD, which includes full access to the first arc of the Wizard101 storyline. Accounts created on a Nintendo device will play on the same server as other console players. 

About Wizard101

A dark magic has enveloped Wizard City and the many realms of The Spiral. As a new student at Ravenwood School of Magical Arts, you might just be the last hope to stop the forces threatening to upend the balance of the world. Unleash your magic and dive into the mysteries surrounding a rogue professor. As you progress through the story, the looming darkness also grows in strength, putting The Spiral at risk.

Sharpen your strategy and wield potent magic in thrilling turn-based card battles. Be sure to customize your spell deck before each encounter, and ensure you have the right cards at the right moment! Face enemies on your own or team up with friends for greater efficiency.

Additionally, wizards are encouraged to take a break from the action with various non-story-based activities! Hatch and train cute pets, craft powerful weapons and gear, reap rewards through gardening, catch rare fish, or personalize your home with castle decorations.
