Its role in the Harry Potter series was just to show off how special Harry is, to the point where you might as well call it \u201cHarry Potter the Seeker and Some Other People on Broomsticks, I Guess.\u201d So the team at developer Unbroken Studios had their work cut out for them with Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions, having to both honor the source material while also adapting quidditch into a real game. Surprisingly, they\u2019ve done a pretty good job at that, with moment-to-moment action on the quidditch pitch that\u2019s actually pretty great. But once you land between matches, Quidditch Champions doesn\u2019t have much off the pitch to keep you coming back.<\/p>\n<p>On the surface, the quidditch in Quidditch Champions is just like the stuff in the books and films. There are still four positions: Chasers grab the Quaffle and shoot it at the opposing team\u2019s goals, scoring ten points if they manage to get it in; Keepers defend those goals; Beaters launch Bludgers to satisfyingly stun members of the opposing team, and when that fails they can whack them with their bats directly; and Seekers chases the Golden Snitch, a small, hard-to-catch winged ball worth a lot of points. But Unbroken has introduced a few rule changes that make things work better \u2013 most notably among them, the Seeker is no longer the only one of these positions that ultimately matters.<\/p>\n<p>Matches end either when one team scores 100 points or a time limit is reached, and they don\u2019t just stop the moment someone catches the Snitch. Speaking of, the Snitch itself is only worth a much more reasonable 30 points instead of 150, and it can appear multiple times (usually about twice) per game. That smartly makes the times you can switch to Seeker a fun little (optional) bonus during a match rather than the do-or-die moment of the entire thing. There\u2019s also only one Beater per team, not two, which makes a lot sense given how they can force other positions to play around them.<\/p>\n<p>The end result of all these tweaks is, frankly, a better game. It allows Chasers to matter just as much, if not more, than Seekers, while keeping the hunt for the Snitch important, especially in tight games. It lets the Beater, who can incapacitate a member of the other team if they deal enough damage, be a strong and strategic part of a whole match without entirely dictating how it plays out. It makes every shot on goal matter, and, most importantly, it ensures matches don\u2019t go on for six months.<\/p>\n<p>Smart changes make for a better, more fun version of quidditch.<\/p>\n<p>So yeah, smart changes make for a better, more fun version of quidditch, but what kept me coming back was the way the on-field action feels. Flying around the pitch is awesome, especially if you master Quidditch Champions\u2019 movement techniques. Managing your boost meter and learning how to dodge and drift properly are the differences between accidentally blowing past the other team as a Chaser and faking out a Keeper to land the perfect shot or keeping up with the Snitch during tight turns and taking a Bludger to the skull before contemplating your choices while face down in the pitch for the next twenty seconds. Mid-match commentary will chime in alongside those plays either way, though it\u2019s unfortunately pretty stilted and generic \u2013 whether it\u2019s Lee Jordan at Hogwarts or Rita Skeeter during the Quidditch World Cup, there\u2019s good lines here and there, but they\u2019re usually reserved for the beginning and end of a match while the mid-game stuff is\u2026 dry, to say the least.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, every position has a fun role to play. I loved playing Keeper because I enjoyed the chess match between myself and the opposing Chasers, reacting to their shots, and dropping Playcalling Rings that restore my Chasers\u2019 energy and give them speed boosts; Chasers are constantly tackling each other to steal the ball, moving up and down the pitch, and testing themselves against the Keeper; a well-played Beater can pick apart the other team, disrupting a Seeker at the last second or taking the Keeper off the board to allow a game-winning goal; and because Seekers can\u2019t just grab the Snitch \u2014 they have to stay close to it and fill a meter before they can finally snatch it \u2014 every fight for those bonus points is essentially a race with another Seeker. And since you can switch positions on the fly, you can spend as much (or as little) time in each role as you like. It\u2019s great.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s even better, of course, when you\u2019re playing with friends. You can play cooperatively with two other players or take on human teams in 3v3 action online, though switching positions there works a little differently. In that case, you choose a pair of positions \u2014 Chaser and either Keeper, Seeker, or Beater \u2014 and swap between those. What you lose in position flexibility you make up for in the ability to coordinate with your team. In my first online game, I mostly played Keeper, making saves, using the Playcaller Rings to set up shots on goal, and passing to my friend so they could score as a Chaser. It was a close game, but we won because we worked together.<\/p>\n<p>So Quidditch Champions is great on the field, but unfortunately it\u2019s pretty mediocre off it. There\u2019s really nothing to do besides play these straightforward quidditch matches, be that online or alone. You\u2019ve got a limited career mode with four Cups to win, with the opening Weasley Cup serving as a (very good) tutorial. The other three are the House Cup at Hogwarts, the Triwizard Quidditch Cup, and the Quidditch World Cup. After a series of preliminary matches, you\u2019re seeded into a single-elimination bracket, winner-take-all \u2013 and while that may sound like it could be exciting, there are a couple of issues here.<\/p>\n<p>First, the Triwizard Cup and the House Cup only feature three and four teams, respectively, so the bracket stage is pretty short (and in the case of the Triwizard Cup, only consists of one match because a team is eliminated in the prelims). Second, while you can play Career in co-op (and the menus encourage you to do so), Quidditch Champions doesn\u2019t actually track your progress if you do, meaning I ended up playing the House Cup three times to unlock the Triwizard Cup. My first two attempts, made in co-op, weren\u2019t saved. I didn\u2019t get credit for any games I played on my Challenge screen either, which tracks your daily, weekly, and career-wide progress across games and offers rewards once you complete them, which meant I missed unlockable cosmetics as well. That feels bad. <\/p>\n<p>Beyond career, multiplayer, and an obligatory practice mode, there just isn\u2019t much to do in terms of modes, which leaves the whole package feeling thin. The character customization, however, is at least quite good. You can customize your team, allocate per-position stat points, and upgrade the several brooms you can choose from, all of which have different stats. This tinkering is welcome; there are a lot of options for your custom characters, letting you choose their look, how commentators refer to them, and plenty of cool bits and bobs like robes, wands, emotes, and such, though it\u2019s a bummer that the co-op progression problems mean you will have to grind single-player games to unlock a decent chunk of those items. <\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t want to use custom characters? You can unlock Harry, Ron, Hermoine, Cedric Diggory, Draco Malfoy (ew), Cho Chang, and the rest if you save up enough currency or, say it with me, level up your battle pass. While your eyes might already be rolling upon reading that, the good news is it\u2019s totally free so far, and you earn everything just from playing. There are no microtransactions in Quidditch Champions; at least, not right now. After all, this is Warner Bros. \u2013 do you trust it to build an in-game shop and <em>not <\/em>ask you to open your wallet at some point down the line? I don\u2019t.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let\u2019s be honest: quidditch is not a good sport \u2013 or at least it\u2019s not one that was ever designed to actually be played.
