The Best Harry Potter Games Of All Time
Even though Harry Potter games tend to be extremely hit-or-miss, a few releases capture the magic of the books, movies, and the overall universe.
Many Simmers have tried their hand at recreating some of the characters and locations within the Harry Potter series in The Sims 4 gallery. Because of this, there are tons of awesome interpretations of the iconic characters to be found there. Some of these Sims are based on the actors who portrayed the characters in the movies, while others are more unique or based on the descriptions in the book.
10 Draco Malfoy
Created by PsicodelicZombi
- Packs Required: Get Famous, City Living, Get Together, Get To Work, Realm of Magic, Jungle Adventure, Spa Day, Backyard Stuff, and Perfect Patio Stuff.
- Download Link
First off is a Sim of Harry’s major rival in the series: Draco Malfoy. This Malfoy Sim was made by Simmer PsicodelicZombi, and rather than being inspired by the actor who plays him in the movies - Tom Felton-, he seems to be more generalized.
This Malfoy has that condescending glare that is very much in line with his character, along with his iconic blonde hair. He’s also wearing the trademark Slytherin green color. Players could pair him with a Harry Sim to create the ultimate in-game rivalry or even live out their enemies-to-lovers dream scenario by placing them in a home together.
9 Ginny Weasley
Created by maudhuy
- Packs Required: Discover University, Seasons, Cats & Dogs, Get Together, Get To Work, Dine Out, Outdoor Retreat, Vintage Glamour Stuff, Movie Hangout Stuff, Perfect Patio Stuff, and Luxury Party Stuff.

Next is a Sim from Simmer maudhuy based on Ron’s little sister Ginny, who would go on to become Harry’s love interest later in the series. This Ginny Sim is specifically based on Bonnie Wright, who plays Ginny in the movies, and the likeness is undeniable.
There are various Sims in the gallery that look like a younger Ginny, but this one is reminiscent of an older one, which is more appropriate for those looking to pair her with a Harry Sim. She’s also wearing a waistcoat and tie, emulating her Hogwarts uniform.
8 Sirius Black
Created by TheSimEmporium
- Packs Required: Discover University, Get Famous, Realm of Magic, Vampires, Spa Day, Laundry Day Stuff, Vintage Glamour Stuff, Romantic Garden Stuff, and Perfect Patio Stuff.

Harry’s uncle, Sirius Black, is one of the more emotional characters in the book and film series, being the last living member of Harry’s family, and he has been recreated excellently here by Simmer TheSimEmporium. This Sirius Sim is based on the movie version of the character played by Gary Oldman. The resemblance is fantastic, from the graying beard to the forehead wrinkles, eye wrinkles, and the slightly graying curled hair.
Sirius is an Animagus in the series, so it would be interesting to have a black dog version of him to go along with him in human form. Other than that, there’s not much else that could have been done to create a better Sirius Black Sim than this.
7 Cedric Diggory
Created by Leanne62640
- Packs Required: Snowy Escape, Eco Lifestyle, Discover University, Get Famous, Vampires, Spa Day, and Outdoor Retreat.
- Download Link
Cedric Diggory was only in the fourth book and movie, but he quickly became a fan favorite, even though he was - SPOILERS AHEAD - killed in the end. Simmer Leanne62640 has recreated Cedric Diggory in his movie form, replicating actor Robert Pattinson in his younger years perfectly.
The Best Worlds in The Sims 4, Ranked
With each expansion pack in The Sims 4, the available options for worlds continue to increase.
As well as capturing Pattinson’s look, this Cedric Sim is dressed in a yellow and black outfit to represent his Hogwarts house, Hufflepuff. Robert Pattinson and Cedric Diggory fans alike are sure to love this impressively accurate Sim
6 Luna Lovegood
Created by Loulicorn
- Packs Required: Cottage Living, Eco Lifestyle, Get Famous, Seasons, Cats & Dogs, Get To Work, Dream Home Decorator, Realm of Magic, Spa Day, Outdoor Retreat, Paranormal Stuff Pack, Nifty Knitting Stuff Pack, Spooky Stuff Pack, Throwback Fit Kit, and the free Holiday Celebration Pack.

Luna Lovegood is another fan-favorite Harry Potter character, thanks to her sweet, kind, and eccentric nature. There are various versions of Luna in the Sims 4 gallery, with plenty of fun and unique interpretations. However, this version from Simmer Loulicorn wins a spot on this list thanks to just how accurate it is to the actress who played her.
Luna is played by Irish actress Evanna Lynch, and her appearance has been recreated so perfectly here that it's a little bit scary. Her facial features have clearly been sculpted with incredible detail to resemble Evanna as much as possible. Even the shade of her bright blonde hair and the blueness of her eyes are on point.
What makes this Sim even better is the outfit she is wearing. Luna is known for her quirky style choices, and this is recreated excellently here. Her mismatched main outfit includes a pink flowery dress, a purple beanie hat, rainbow-striped tights, and a brown tasseled waistcoat. It wouldn't work for anyone else, but for Luna, it’s perfect.
5 Hagrid and Fang
Created by iamtr3
- Packs Required: Cats & Dogs, Get Together, Get To Work, Dine Out, Spa Day, Outdoor Retreat, Vintage Glamour Stuff, Romantic Garden Stuff, Cool Kitchen Stuff, and Luxury Party Stuff.

Hagrid is a comfort character of sorts, acting as a close friend to Harry, Ron, and Hermione from the start of the series and even as a sort of father figure. Hagrid is initially the Groundskeeper at Hogwarts, but he has a strong affinity for animals of all kinds. This Sim family not only includes Hagrid himself but also the puppy version of his faithful bloodhound companion, Fang.
Much like Hagrid, Fang becomes a gentle giant in the series, but here, he is still very much a baby, and he is an adorable one at that. These Hagrid and Fang Sims (created by Simmer iamtr3) are super wholesome and would make a great addition to a Harry Potter fan's home in The Sims 4.
4 Harry, Ron, and Hermione
Created by Loulicorn
- Packs Required: Growing Together, Snowy Escape, Discover University, Get Famous, Seasons, Get To Work, Realm of Magic, Parenthood, Vampires, Nifty Knitting Kit, Vintage Glamour Stuff, Backyard Stuff, and Romantic Garden Stuff.
- Download Link
This is the first of two Sim versions of the main three characters of the Harry Potter series - Harry, Ron, and Hermione - on this list, as it's difficult not to have a Harry Potter Sims list without including the big three at least a few times. Another Sim family created by Loulicorn (who has made a few Harry Potter Sims that can be found on their profile), Harry, Ron, and Hermione have each been lovingly crafted to look as realistic as possible here.
The Sims 4: Best Pokemon in The Gallery, Ranked
Talented players in The Sims 4 have recreated their favorite Pokemon in the game's animal-based expansion packs.
Their designs recreate the actors excellently, but it’s the little things that make the difference here as well, such as Harry’s forehead scar, Hermione’s light freckles, and Ron’s awkward teenage facial hair. Even the clothes are in line with what their characters wear when not in uniform. Loulicorn’s creations offer a fantastic take on the Harry Potter characters, but their version of the three main protagonists is particularly impressive.
3 Harry Potter
Created by Darth_Geno
- Packs Required: Get Famous, Seasons, Get To Work, Realm of Magic, Parenthood, Vampires, Spa Day, Outdoor Retreat, and Movie Hangout Stuff.
- Download Link
There are plenty of Sims in the gallery of the main man himself from the series, but this take on Harry from Simmer Darth_Geno is a great choice that excellently recreates Daniel Radcliffe while still very much being a Harry Sim.
Radcliffe’s features have been impeccably recreated here. Those who know the actor would easily be able to tell that it’s meant to be him with a quick once-over of the Sim, which is a highly impressive feat for Simmers. This is a recreation of an older Harry, so he would pair well with an older Ginny Sim for those wanting to replicate their relationship in-game.
2 Nymphadora Tonks
Created by Leanne62640
- Packs Required: Cottage Living, Eco Lifestyle, Discover University, Get Together, Get To Work, Realm of Magic, StrangerVille, Jungle Adventure, Spa Day, Vintage Glamour Stuff, and Perfect Patio Stuff.
- Download Link
Next is the second inclusion on this list from Leanne62640, another Simmer that has created a lot of incredible Harry Potter characters that can be found on their Sims 4 gallery profile. For fans of Nymphadora Tonks, this take on the character is certain to impress.
Tonks was a character that wasn’t given a huge amount of screentime in the films, but she played an important role in the final battle for Hogwarts, so many consider both her and her husband, Remus Lupin, to be unsung heroes of a sort.
This Sim of Tonks is modeled on actress Natalia Tena, and she has a design that replicates her distinctive style, such as her bright pink hair and collared necklace. Tonks fans can download this Sim version of her along with a Remus and play out the happy ending that the characters - SPOILERS AGAIN - never got to see after their deaths at the battle for Hogwarts.
1 Harry, Ron, and Hermione
Created by SirSIM
- Packs Required: Get Together, Get To Work, Jungle Adventure, Vampires, Dine Out, Spa Day, Cool Kitchen Stuff, and the free Holiday Celebration Pack.
- Download Link
Last but not least is another recreation of Harry, Ron, and Hermione, this time from Simmer SirSIM. This Sim family has over 16,000 downloads, and it is easy to see why.
Harry and Ron are the perfect combination of their actors and the descriptions from the book, though the Hermione Sim is quite possibly the most impressive recreation of Emma Watson found in the entire Sims 4 gallery. The three of them wear school uniform-style outfits, too, to resemble their Hogwarts uniform.
The attention to detail, accuracy of the characters, and allusions to actors Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, and Emma Watson make these Harry, Ron, and Hermione Sims some of the most impressive Harry Potter characters recreated in The Sims 4.
