Goblins in Harry Potter are portrayed as a race of hook-nosed, large-eared, thick-lipped, hunchbacked, hand-wringing greedy bankers that are racially incapable of understanding human definitions of property rights and will therefore always try to fuck you over on every deal you make with them forever (like, they will literally keep looking for loopholes in a contract after several centuries because being scheming assholes that can't let go of their possessions is in their blood). In the movies, their bank also had a star of david mosaic on the floor in case the antisemitism was too subtle for some viewers.
In the new game, the main storyline is about violently suppressing their uprising against a society that treats them as second class citizens, and this uprising is now framed as a conspiracy by Magic Hitler who tries to use them to destablize wizard society.
Also note that in her more recent novels, J.K. Rowling goes to great lengths to portray leftist strawman characters that are totally not sexualized Jeremy Corbyn expies as being very antisemitic for being pro-palestine.
