That didn&#8217;t stop EA from releasing &#8216;Quidditch World Cup&#8217; in 2003, which, although it marked the childhood of many, was as entertaining as it was forgettable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, Warner wants to capitalize on the universe it has acquired through its deep pockets and surprise trailers.

And it must be acknowledged that what could be seen before the videos were taken down due to copyright issues looked fantastic (figuratively speaking, don&#8217;t expect &#8216;Tears of the Kingdom&#8217; on a flying broomstick). Well, not everyone thinks the same: <strong>there are rumors that in the previous game, they removed Quidditch to avoid cannibalizing the results of this one<\/strong>, and some even accuse it of being a mere copy of &#8216;Rocket League.&#8217; We&#8217;ll have to wait to learn more, but to be honest, as impressive as it may look\u2026 it seems a bit like a money grab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s possible that if <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/harry-potter-series-max-release-date-cast-all\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">J.K. Rowling<\/a> knew that Quidditch would become such a big thing, she would have given it a different name or reconsidered its mechanics. But the truth is that <strong>the name came about by jotting down different words that started with &#8216;Q&#8217; on a piece of paper<\/strong>\u2026 and not long after, people were founding clubs to play it in real life. Oh! If you want to join one, don&#8217;t search for the word &#8220;Quidditch&#8221; anymore: due to the author&#8217;s inflammatory statements, they now call it &#8220;Quadball.&#8221; And you can&#8217;t use Avada Kedavra on the opposing team either: that wouldn&#8217;t make for a realistic game experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It must be recognized that what could be seen before the videos were removed due to copyright looks wonderful<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9263,"featured_media":231281,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","wpcf-pageviews":0},"categories":[1015],"tags":[2337,1397,3868,4319,3871],"usertag":[],"vertical":[],"content-category":[],"class_list":["post-231278","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-app-subdomain-redirectionsteam","tag-harry-potter","tag-juegos","tag-quidditch-champions","tag-videojuegos"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/231278","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9263"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=231278"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/231278\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":320151,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/231278\/revisions\/320151"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/231281"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=231278"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=231278"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=231278"},{"taxonomy":"usertag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/usertag?post=231278"},{"taxonomy":"vertical","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vertical?post=231278"},{"taxonomy":"content-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-category?post=231278"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
