Author : Aria May 16,2025

As a die-hard fan of the Harry Potter series, diving back into the magical world through different formats is always a treat. While the movies offer a visual spectacle, the illustrated editions of the books provide a unique and immersive experience that can reignite your love for the story. Although the full set of illustrated books by Jim Kay is yet to be completed, there's exciting news for fans: a new interactive edition of "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" is set to release on October 14, 2025, and you can preorder it now.

This new interactive edition isn't to be confused with Jim Kay's illustrated versions. Instead, it features stunning illustrations by Karl James Mountford and intricate papercraft designs by Jess Tice-Gilbert. This edition stands out with over 150 full-color illustrations and elements reminiscent of a pop-up book, offering a tactile experience that brings the magic to life in your hands. The discontinuation of the previous interactive illustrated editions by MinaLima after "The Prisoner of Azkaban" has paved the way for this new creative team to take over, much to the delight of collectors eager to complete their series.

You can currently preorder "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire: Interactive Illustrated Edition" at Barnes & Noble for $49.99, with a 20% discount bringing it down to $39.99. However, the best deal is available at Amazon, where you can snag it for $46.10 after an 8% discount.
