The new Harry Potter: Wizards Unite<\/em> mobile game has taken iOS and Android devices by storm since its release in June. The new game from Pokemon Go<\/em> developers, Niantic, is allowing players to bring their favorite Harry Potter<\/em> characters into the real world to help round up some of the series most beloved characters, known as Foundables. <\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve been playing recently, you may have seen references to something called the \u2018Brilliant Event\u2019 \u2013 it has caused some confusion among players, but it\u2019s the first Harry Potter: Wizards Unite<\/em> special event and it\u2019s live right now! We have put together a handy guide explaining the Harry Potter: Wizards Unite <\/em>Brilliant Event details. Let\u2019s get started!<\/p>\n

Harry Potter: Wizards Unite Brilliant Event | Restricted Books, Rewards, and more<\/h2>\n

The new Wizards Unite<\/em> Brilliant Event kicked off last night across the world. It is a time for players to find limited time Foundables from the Forbidden Forest and other Hogwarts locations that they wouldn\u2019t normally be able to find, and comes with a new registry page in the ‘Events’ area (bottom row, far right tab), as well as new assignments\/challenges.<\/p>\n

\"Brilliant<\/p>\n

Click on the calendar in the game; Once you\u2019ve done that, on the bottom of your screen you will see a tab marked \u201cSpecial.\u201d Touching that show the specific challenges for the Brilliant Event, which come in four stages – once you’ve done all the challenges for one stage, the page then refreshes with a new set of challenges. <\/p>\n

It will be running until July 10th<\/strong>, so players will have around a week to rescue six new and different Foundables (the fragments required ranged from one to twelve). The new registry page acts like any other registry page, although we’ve noted that levelling up rewards higher numbers of Scrolls than is typical. Another bonus of doing events is that it is currently the only way to get ‘Restricted Section Books<\/strong>‘, which you will need for some of the more advanced lessons in your Profession skill-tree. Other Event rewards include Family XP, and ‘Fantastic Flora & Fauna’ Runestones.<\/p>\n

So far, doing the challenges has netted us Restricted Section Books, both for completing specific challenges but also as a ‘bonus’ for completing the first stage of challenges.<\/p>\n

\"Brilliant<\/p>\n

If you can\u2019t check it out right now, the event description reads, \u201cThe Forbidden Forest has been thrown out of sorts by the Calamity. Lend Hagrid a helping hand by returning the forest\u2019s missing flora and fauna to its proper place.\u201d<\/em> So, grab your wand and get ready to conjure up some spells to help gather up the missing Foundables!<\/p>\n

It is important to note that this is not the only Brilliant Event that will be coming to Harry Potter: Wizards Unite<\/em>. The term ‘Brilliant Event’ is merely a synonym for any in-game event. While we don\u2019t know the specifics, there will be more Brilliant Events coming to the game in the coming weeks and months.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
