We’ve all been waiting for this to happen for a long time, and here it is now: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince game finally received an official release date from Electronic Arts: June 30, 2009. Yes, that’s right, that’s the date when the entire world will be able to become the beloved wizard Potter and take part in the greatest adventure of his life.

The image you can admire to the left shows us just how great will Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince look like, so I am sure that the wait until the game gets released will be pretty tough. But let’s find out some more details about the game, shall we?

As you would’ve expected, you will return to Hogwarts to help Harry survive his sixth year. This means that you’ll see everything from exciting duels to mixing and brewing magical potions and even Quidditch intense matches. Even more, we may all get sidetracked by Ron’s romantic entanglements as we journey towards a dramatic climax and discover the identity of the Half-Blood Prince.

In other words, it will be a real hit and probably the best Harry Potter game ever. We’ll see that for ourselves on June 30 (or July 3rd in the UK). Are you excited?
