Extras[]
At the very end of the game, after the credits are done or have been skipped, there is a short video montage featuring clips from all nine games (including Quidditch World Cup). It is set to the music of Combat Part 3: Battle to the Vault, and features the phrase "Thanks for Playing."
Trivia[]
- This is the first game in which the player can Apparate (but only when playing as Harry). In the previous games, Apparition was only seen in the cutscenes.
- One of the scenes in the game is taken from a deleted scene from the film where Draco Malfoy throws Harry a wand immediately after being embraced by Voldemort. In the game however, Draco simply hands it to him instead of throwing it.
- The game 's title screen in all versions except for the DS version changes depending on the player's progress in the game: at first, it's late at night between May 1st and May 2nd, then, after completing Chapter 4, it has one change, which is the red barrier that protects Hogwarts Castle. After clearing Chapter 7, some parts of the castle are on fire, the path to the Boathouse is severely damaged, with some rubble around the area, and the sky is clearer, showing that it's not night anymore, but it's now dawn of May 2nd. Lastly, after completing the game, it's morning. Instead, in the DS version, it shows the castle at dawn similarly to the posters, although without damage or fires.
- The wands of Voldemort, Bellatrix Lestrange, Draco Malfoy, Amycus Carrow and Minerva McGonagall are all changed to resemble their movie wands, everyone else in the game wields a replica of Harry's wand.
- This was the last Harry Potter game published by EA games. Future Potter games would be published by Warner Bros' own game division.
- This was also the last game to be developed by EA Bright Light before its closure at the end of 2011.
- Professor McGonagall is the only playable character that does not have any running abilities due to old age as she only walks slowly when the player is controlling her. Ironically, she is only playable in boss fights.
- For some odd reason, the Voldemort's Last Stand Challenge didn't feature the same thing from the story mode. Instead, this challenge was from A Turn Of Events, which included the Voldemort boss fight, the chase scene and the playable Ron as the latter in the challenge only featured Ron.
