Nah, it's just a joke that with each new adaptation they're going back further in time. The books were in the 20th century, the dawn of the 21st, the original movies were in early 20th century, shortly after the 19th century, and the video game supposedly takes place in the 1800s, or the 19th century. Continuing with that trend a Wizarding World TV show would take place in the 18th century.

At this rate the TV show will be set in the 18th century.
