Hogwarts Legacy Reviews
Hogwarts Legacy is a must-have for fans, and worth a buy for everyone else if they're interested. It does have its shortcomings, but its stellar gameplay and world allows it to stand on its own.
Hogwarts Legacy is by far the best adaptation for Harry Potter's Fans. For those people, it's like a dream come true. That being said, I believe the World, characters and story had more potential which left unused. Nevertheless, Hogwarts Legacy is an entertaining game that could keep you busy and well entertained for a long time.

Hogwarts Legacy, as we mentioned, may be a regular open-world game. Still, its use of the wizarding world in all its aspects was terrific and very special, in the way that the story presents interesting events and missions with ideas, a fun combat system, and a world that gives many motives to roam through thanks to the use of ideas of magical abilities by exploring it. After years of flimsy games from the Harry Potter series, Hogwarts Legacy is finally an amazing experience worthy of that world and welcomes new fans.

Hogwarts Legacy is not only the best Harry Potter game created to date, but it is also a good RPG for those who are not lovers of the franchise. The care that Avalanche Software has given in each and every one of the elements of the game is worthy of admiration, being able to realize the dream that many of us had as children: to have an experience in the magical world.

It felt like Hogwarts Legacy was always going to struggle to live up to the hype, but somehow Avalanche Software has managed to deliver an absolutely fantastic open world adventure that will surely go down as comfortably the best game based on the Harry Potter franchise so far. If you've been following its progress for a while and were keeping your fingers crossed for good reviews, we're pleased to report that it's definitely been worth the wait.
Hogwarts Legacy tells a great story of the wizarding world, with a beautiful audiovisual work and solid mechanics to the lore of this universe. Its greatest quality, however, lies in making all of this contribute to the fantastic experience of immersion and belonging that every fan has always dreamed of.

While Hogwarts Legacy doesn't bring anyting new to the the open-world action RPG genre, it manages to captivate players with its incredibly detailed world and fun activites. The game feels more like a theme park ride and offers an incredibly magical experience rather than a deep story. The game is full of references and even reimaginations of scenes from the Harry Potter films. Those magical moments of flying on a hippogriff, seeing the sun set behind Hogwarts and snow falling from the ceiling in the Great Hall will be etched in your memory.

Hogwarts Legacy offers players the closest they will ever get to attending Hogwarts, and the love and attention to detail put into the game is phenomenal. Although there are some drawbacks, they do not significantly impact the overall experience, which is beautiful to look at and enjoyable to play, allowing players to fulfill their dream of being a witch or wizard in the wizarding world.
Horwarts Legacy on the Switch 2 is a noticeable improvement over the version we got on the original Switch. The game looks much better, the gameplay is smooth and above all: no more annoying loading times - save for a slow door here or there. And as a very nice bonus you can upgrade from the original version for just 10 bucks.

Hogwarts Legacy on the Nintendo Switch 2 offers an adventure set in Hogwarts, letting you live the life of a student at the most popular and beloved school of witchcraft and wizardry. However, the main story falls short in some areas, with a few plot holes that leave certain questions unanswered. Many of the side quests are engaging and well-written. The game also features dynamic combat, allowing players to create interesting builds — and with the Nintendo Switch 2’s mouse mode, the battles become even more fun.

Hogwarts Legacy arrives on the Nintendo Switch 2 with the grandeur it always deserved. After a frustrating initial release on the previous console, Big N fans finally receive a smooth, visually polished, and technically stable experience — something essential for the magic to truly work. Despite some stumbles in the main narrative and limitations in the progression and customization systems, the game shines where it matters most: in atmosphere, combat, and immersion. Exploring the halls of Hogwarts, flying across the open fields on a broomstick, and casting classic spells is everything a fan could wish for — and more. With improved performance and the quality delivered, Hogwarts Legacy stands as one of the best third-party adaptations on the Switch 2 so far. If you ever dreamed of receiving your Hogwarts letter… Now is the time to open the envelope.

It's not a terrible game; I mean, it's a strictly decent game. I had a good time with it for a few brief moments, but I quickly got bored after a few hours. It's not a game worth hating on, and I don't think it's worth condemning someone for choosing to play this game as a Harry Potter fan. After all, if this game had come out at any other time, no one would have cared about Hogwarts Legacy, and it would have been a drop in the ocean. And the bottom line is: it's a mediocre game, and it deserves a score that would put you one tenth of the way away from passing school.

Despite its thin plot and small nitpicks, playing Hogwarts Legacy is truly enjoyable. In addition to the main adventure, activities like interacting with fantastic beasts, broom flying and wand combat are all incredibly fun. There’s also plenty of side content – like Merlin’s Trial puzzle challenges, which are quite clever. Although Hogwarts and its surroundings are vast and full of details, I didn’t experience the usual open-world fatigue, because the experience feels so unique. The audiovisual execution is also second to none, with both sound effects and the soundtrack successfully mimicking the atmosphere of the Potter films.

Hogwarts Legacy is truly what I dream about as a Harry Potter fan. Exploring a magical world, learning how to use magic or seeing unbelievable things. Developer Avalance created something as magical as the Harry Potter movies… a game with limitless possibilities.
Hogwarts Legacy is a beautifully crafted love letter to The Wizarding World that we all know and love. The fluid combat combined with an engaging experience cements Hogwarts Legacy’s place as a Game of the Year contender. While drawn back by the absence of a morality system and Quidditch, it really is hard to fault an experience this polished.
Hogwarts Legacy is a fantastic return to the Wizarding World and Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In my 50 hour playthrough of the game I finished all of the major character driven side quests, but left many of the minor open world activities uncompleted. There certainly wasn’t any shortage of things to do in this world and it was an enjoyable experience from start to finish.
