Wonderbook is a project that we are incredibly excited about here at PlayStation. Although we only announced it a few months ago, our team at London Studio has been working on the technology for years.

We sat down with the studio team to create a series of “making of” diaries that give a closer look at the development of Wonderbook. To kick off these developer diaries, the team focused on the core technology that helped to form the foundation of the project.

Wonderbook: Book of Spells is the product of our collaboration with J.K. Rowling, and this is the first story that comes to life on PlayStation 3. Learn to cast Incendio, Wingardium Leviosa and Expelliarmus, with your very own spell book and wand.

Wonderbook: Book of Spells will be available in three offerings:

The Wonderbook: Book of Spells Move Bundle includes everything you need to start practicing spells on your PS3 system:

If you already have a PlayStation Eye camera and PlayStation Move motion controller you’ll want the Wonderbook: Book of Spells standalone:
