Old gen gamers that are stuck on the PS4 and Xbox One platforms will, unfortunately, have to wait until 4 April 2023 and shouldn't expect the same level of eye candy and smoothness. Owners of the current gen consoles such as the PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles and beefy PCs need not panic - the game will come out on 10 February 2023 for you and will look fabulous on those powerful machines. Taking place in the late 19th century, several generations before Potter was even born, our customisable student character receives a late acceptance letter to the fabled school of magic and becomes a full-fledged student who attends classes, crafts potions and learns mighty spells, including the Unforgivable Curses like Avada Kedavra, based on role-playing choices that should shape the story. An open-world game set in and around the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry has been a dream for many years, yet through the developers at Portkey Games and publisher Warner Bros, it's finally happening. Rowling's transphobia and her soulless Fantastic Beasts films.

After years of empty hope, the fandom finally have something uplifting after the dark period of J.K. It's true - Harry Potter fans truly haven't had anything worthwhile to look forward to since the film series wrapped up more than a decade ago. Explore the 1890s Hogwarts with gorgeous graphics.Master lots of powerful spells, including Ancient Magic.Create your own playable witch or wizard character.Won't recommend but I don't regret playing it either. I spent more than a hundred hours in this game but some things I played through in irritation or boredom. The designers and artists must have taken years to implement all the details in the castle. Hogwarts Legacy gives lots of things to explore. Also, the missions with Poppy Sweeting have the most beautiful level design,majestic beasts included. And, if you're a Ravenclaw, you won't even get a chance to solve a riddle when you enter your house's common room.Īmong the good things, I personally loved flying on a broom and caring for the beasts. The world won't react to your actions even if you're walking through the castle killing everyone you meet. Noone really explains why you're so special and talented. You don't have a history before Hogwarts. This game is full of chests but their contents are mostly rubbish.Īll in all, the character you're playing as is an avatar. However, the plot, the overall scriptwriting, the dialogues, the characters, even voice acting are very mediocre and sometimes even bad. Most of the efforts went into the visual stuff and design of the world so it would look believable. If you're a fan of Harry Potter world, it's worth looking into it, but if you're a gamer who loves a good story, well-written characters and interesting sidequests, brace yourself.
