Warner Brothers Interactive Entertainment and Electronic Arts have confirmed that the new Harry Potter game will ship in summer 2009 to coincide with the film's release.
Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince is the sixth in JK Rowling's book series about a young wizard growing up in a secret world of magic.
The movie version was originally due to hit screens this autumn but has been pushed back to next summer, which has prompted the new release date for the game tie-in.
EA Casual Studios vice president Robert Nashak said the game will feature new Wii gestures and increased game play capabilities across all platforms.
The firm's Bright Lights studio is developing the title after overseeing all previous Harry Potter games including the most recent Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix.
