According to an inside source. Samsung and Niantic are partnering up. A partnership that could see Harry Potter: Wizards Unite be exclusively available to Samsung Galaxy Note users only.
Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is the up and coming mobile game by Niantic, the brains behind Pokémon GO. A mobile game that has been highly anticipated ever since we learned of its development. However, fans could be dealt a huge blow with the possibility of the game being exclusively available to Samsung Galaxy Note users only.
Now let me be clear. I don’t believe for a second this is true. It would be madness for Niantic to create a mobile game and limit it to not only one brand of device, but to a specific device as well. But, according to an inside source that is exactly what we might be looking at.

The two companies, Samsung and Niantic, are partnering up together. With Samsung reportedly investing approximately $40 million into Niantic. Samsung is looking to improve their appeal as a mobile provider, and Niantic needs funds for a new project. Which is why the two are considering joining forces.
This deal would see preloaded games developed by Niantic on Samsung devices. With the inside source reporting a Harry Potter mobile game becoming available for the Galaxy Note device, with the S-Pen being a makeshift magical wand.

The only Harry Potter game on the books that is publicly known is Harry Potter: Wizards Unite. Which is why there is concern that the game will only be exclusively available to Samsung Galaxy Note users.
Now again, I really cannot see this happening. I think what is most likely to happen is another game will be developed. If it did happen, it won’t be forever. It will most likely be exclusive for a small period of time and then released elsewhere at a later date.
This wouldn’t be the first time something like this happened. The popular game Fortnite could only be played on Samsung Galaxy Note 9 devices for a brief amount of time.
What do you think? Will Harry Potter: Wizards Unite be exclusively available to Samsung Galaxy Note users only? Or do you think something else is going on?
