A new feature is the ability to 'Apparate', which allows the player to teleport in and out of battles, as a form of defence. For the Windows version, the player presses one of the six buttons to select a spell. Three face buttons, usually with a symbol or a letter, on the controller have two spells each, and by pressing a button twice the player can access the button's second spell. Combat in Deathly Hallows – Part 2 involves button presses which initiates spell-casting as an attack. The game progresses linearly, through cutscenes, but does not include side missions like the previous game. The gameplay of Deathly Hallows – Part 2 differs from Part 1, in order to address complaints made with the previous game. Critics reviewed the game negatively for its gameplay, but claimed the game was an improvement over the first installment.įurther information: List of Harry Potter characters The game continues to follow Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger on their quest to defeat Lord Voldemort by destroying his remaining Horcruxes, items which contain part of his soul.
