PS2 adaptation of the fifth Potter book, longer and darker. Exploring Hogwarts amid the Order of the Phoenix political tension is well rendered. Gameplay below previous entries but the world is faithfully captured for novel fans.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (PS2) price, value & rarity
The Korean edition of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, a tie-in to the fifth film modelled on free roaming of Hogwarts castle. Like most film tie-ins distributed in Korea, its run was short and pinned to the film window, with no local reissue. Desirability rests chiefly on the regional scarcity of the Korean pressing, the game remaining an occasional adaptation without lasting play appeal of its own.
