Interactive software company Superscape said today it had won a major contract from LEGO Media to develop game software based on the best-selling children's books about the boy wizard Harry Potter.
Superscape said it would also receive on-going royalties from sales of the new game which will enable children to build their own characters using Superscape's interactive 3D technology.
It is due for release in the autumn.
A company spokeswoman declined to reveal the size of the contract.
