Book of Potions (or Wonderbook: Book of Potions) is an upcoming augmented reality video game being developed by Sony and Pottermore, as a followup to the Wonderbook's debut title, Book of Spells.[1] It will be released in Europe on 13 November, 2013.[1] A North American release has yet to be announced.

Players will be able to brew a wide range of potions under the guidance of Zygmunt Budge, a potioneer character created entirely for the new book and also the author of Book of Potions. Through the eponymous tome, they will enter an "enchanted garden" in which they will face myriad challenges to develop and test their potioneering skills, and compete for the "elusive golden cauldron".

Gameplay

Book of Potions is almost identical to Book of Spells in terms of gameplay; the PlayStation Eye renders the book and its effects while the PlayStation Move controller acts as a wand, as well as other instruments, such as a knife for chopping ingredients and a ladle for stirring the contents of a cauldron.
