However, Team Eldritch prefers to stay anonymous and go by his developer name, in hopes of avoiding any cease-and-desist letters should the "nice" lawyers change their tune. He would also be open to working with the official Portkey Games if they wanted to. Team Eldritch is hoping that "the nice people at Warner Brothers," as he calls them in the game site's disclaimer/plea to c'mon lawyers just let him do this, will stay true to their previous stance with fan creations and let him carry on as long as he doesn't claim affiliation or try to make money. The webpage for the game includes an all-caps disclaimer noting that it is a fan creation, available for free, and is for non-commercial use only. Seeker VR is an "unofficial" game in two ways, which means playing it requires jumping through some hoops.įirst, it is not affiliated with Warner Brothers, the studio that owns the rights to Harry Potter. Potter fans, there are some things to know before you go running to your Quest (or start planning to buy one). In order to create the VR Hogwarts, he adapted the highly detailed spatial images from a previous Harry Potter game that's currently out of print and no longer playable on most devices. Seeker VR is an unofficial Quidditch game, but what really makes it stand out is the virtual, multi-sensory, three-dimensional and tantalizingly explorable Hogwarts world Team Eldritch has constructed with high fidelity to the films. It debuted in August, and as of late September, had over 10,000 downloads on itch.io. "No one had made a Quidditch game for the headset yet," the developer, who goes by Team Eldritch, said via email.

It's the creation of a Harry Potter superfan so dedicated that he spent the better part of the pandemic year teaching himself how to code in VR, all to bring to life the Hogwarts castle and grounds, as well as the flying mechanics of the broomstick and autonomous balls, for fans like him. Multitasking in mid-air is a necessary skill to hone in a new VR game for Oculus Quest called Seeker VR. Can I pull it off? Closer, closer, I reach out my arm, and at the same time as I'm grabbing the ball with my left hand, I'm pulling up on the broomstick with my right and YES! The Quaffle is mine!
I'm racing toward the grass from 50 feet in the air to retrieve it, but I'll have to recover from my nose dive - fast - if I want to grab the Quidditch ball without slamming into the ground.
