New cards, new events, and new features! We have a lot of updates to go over with even more exciting content to come. Check out the recent updates for Harry Potter: Magic Awakened below, before diving into the exciting content arriving with this week’s server maintenance.

Obscurus Card: Just last week this powerful new Dark Spell card arrived in-game. The Obscurus card is currently available in a limited time Card Pool, with a higher chance to obtain this card, and the Time-Turner spell card.

Obscurus Card Details: This Dark spell card transforms you into an invincible Obscurus, launching 6 rapid Basic Attacks on random opponent units in the target area while briefly slowing them. After the attacks, the target zone explodes, dealing massive damage to all enemy units inside and erasing the Obscurus status. You will then return to your starting point. 

If there are no opponent units in the target area, the area will be detonated and the attack will end. When the Obscurus effect wears off, you are weakened and take 40% more damage for 5 seconds.

Ambassador Showcases: Our Ambassador Showcases are under way, with weekly blogs spotlighting the amazing content our Ambassadors put together, showing new content and gameplay guides for various in-game features! You can find the latest Ambassador Showcase on the official website [LINK].

We are still accepting applications for our Ambassador Program, if you haven’t applied yet be sure to send in your application here [LINK].
