Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 is an action-adventure game for Xbox 360 based on the film. Players control Harry Potter as he embarks on a mission to locate Horcruxes that contain fragments of the antagonist's soul. The game emphasizes combat and stealth elements, departing from the exploration and role-playing features present in earlier titles in the series.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 is an adaption of the movie of the same name. The player takes the role of Harry Potter on his quest to find the Horcruxes, the source of the villain's immortality. The gameplay is similar to Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, as it is an action video game, not a video game of making potions, playing Quidditch or exploring Hogwarts. There is no RPG iteration of the game, unlike with previous titles.
