A summary of the game is as follows:

‘Developed by Mediatonic, in partnership with WB Games San Francisco, Fantastic Beasts: Cases from the Wizarding World enables players to delve into the wizarding world as new recruits for the Ministry of Magic, visiting familiar locations like the Leaky Cauldron, Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade while exploring all-new magical mysteries.

Warner Bros. comments:

“We are delighted to bring fans a new mobile game inspired by J.K. Rowling’s Wizarding World, which invites players to discover their own fantastic beasts,” said David Haddad, President, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. “Fantastic Beasts: Cases from the Wizarding World offers a fun, magical mobile experience to all players.”

The game is interactive, and in-game experiences will be able to be shared with friends via Facebook. Could this replace the old interactive Pottermore?
