Hogwarts Legacy Reviews
Hogwarts Legacy manages to combine several elements present in RPG titles and action games almost perfectly. One of his greatest successes is to explore very well the material on which he is inspired. Experiencing the wizarding world from the point of view of a character created by you is something unique. It follows the same formula already seen in its combat, mixing the best in today's action games in a comfortable way for casual players. As much as the title lacks in its main campaign and repeats certain narrative clichés, it is definitely the game that every Harry Potter fan and I have always wanted.

While more remembered by the controversy, Hogwarts Legacy offers a quite fun world and some interesting mechanics for the player to experiment and that although a bit formulaic is pretty fun. That being said, the game lacks a lot in the story department and definitely some things could be improved in the sure sequel that Avalanche is developing.

Hogwarts Legacy is a testament to the dedication of its creators and is worthy of its source material. But it could’ve been so much more. Instead, it settled for everything we expected and is destined to be remembered for the poisonous debate that preceded it.
Hogwarts Legacy offers an enjoyable open-world game for both those familiar and unfamiliar with the wizarding world. There are dozens of hours of entertainment to be found in the game and quite a few enjoyable storylines to indulge in.
Hogwarts Legacy is a lovely experience that will vary in quality for different people. Harry Potter world lovers will definitely enjoy it unlike any other work, and for others who have little knowledge of this world or are not at all familiar with this space, it will be a good and satisfying experience. What everyone will agree with is that this game is a very admirable achievement as Avalanche Studio's first ambitious project, and it has the potential to turn into a flawless game in its next installments.

It may not yet be the definitive experience that has it all, but it is the best game based on the world of Harry Potter created to date.

A surprisingly refreshing and extremely solid title that feels substantial in size, scope, and variety without ever wearing out its welcome.
Hogwarts Legacy gives us the best wizarding world experience we have ever had in a video game. You get to have the full Hogwarts student experience with free roam of the castle and grounds. There are so many fun side quests and activities to enjoy while also hunting for secrets and mysteries in the environment. The story is a little dull and some enemies can be bullet sponges but it does not spoil the fantastically magical adventure that this game offers.
Hogwarts Legacy beautifully captures the awe-inspiring magic and wonder of the Harry Potter movies and the Wizarding World. It's a massive, densely packed RPG with so much care and passion poured into it by Avalanche Software.
As a Harry Potter fan, it’s extremely hard not to love the game. Was the game everything I hoped it would be? Probably not. It’s palpable how much the developers played on the nostalgia of the fandom. That being said, the game offers just enough to feel like you’re a part of the Wizarding World, while giving the opportunity for enjoyment to those who are not familiar with the books and movies. Hogwarts castle, the possibility to cast spells and brew potions, to fly and wander around the Highlands overshadow the minor technical issues and a shallow plot. Warner Bros. is already hinting at a sequel, and I’m sure that the next game will be an even bigger success. From one fan to another: I solemnly swear that Hogwarts Legacy is an enchanting adventure that will transport you to the Wizarding World and leave you spellbound.
Hogwarts Legacy is the perfect gift for the long-time fans of the franchise, but simply an alright game for everyone else. There are some technical issues, but they don't really spoil the experience.

For people like myself who already know the wizarding world of Harry Potter, who have devoured the books and scoured the films, Hogwarts Legacy is close to being a full five-star game. Just being able to stroll through the halls of Hogwarts, admiring the moving paintings and the obscene amounts of detail that Avalanche have put into it, is probably worth the price of entry alone. The fact that you’re getting a really good open-world game on top of it with fun combat is just the icing on the conjured cake. Sadly, though, I don’t think Hogwarts Legacy delivers on its story premise.
As a fifth-year student, you're new to Hogwarts. Together with your professor you have discovered the existence of ancient magic. Now you must find out the secret of this magic together and make sure it doesn't fall into the wrong hands. Hogwarts Legacy is a beautiful game that, thanks to its open world RPG, finally makes it possible to roam freely in Hogwarts, Hogsmeade and the Scottish highlands. The combat system is well put together and the game provides an immersive experience. Highly recommended to play for anyone with even the slightest interest in the Wizarding World.

Welcome to Hogwarts Legacy, a chance to experience all the wonders that Hogwarts (amongst other areas) has to offer. Starting out your journey in Central London, you’re quickly whisked off on a wonderous adventure full of excitement. You’ll soon find yourself at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Hogwarts Legacy is one of the best surprises I’ve experienced in some time. Despite being a muggle through and through, it fully engrossed me in its world and filled me with a child-like charm that I haven’t felt from any other recently released game.
With very high expectations, Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy manages to surprise the player both in terms of its narrative and the fully explorable universe. The title offers dozens of hours of quests in addition to the little secrets hidden everywhere. If you are a Harry Potter fan, there is no doubt that you will be charmed by this successful adaptation. Flaws such as certain parts of the interface or the underused equipment system do not allow the overall experience to be tarnished. Hats off to the studio team at Avalanche Software who had a huge order and managed to meet the challenge. No doubt more content will be added in the future especially with the current commercial and critical success.

Dependent on the source material but with its own freedom, Hogwarts Legacy successfully brings the world of magic to life.
