Even if the story won't be in any way linked to the characters fans remember from the books and films, it may possess tonal similarities. We know that Hogwarts Legacy will focus on ancient magic that only your character is able to understand and use, and that player choices will be one of the main pillars of the game's mechanics. Knowing this, it is only logical to assume that the same fight between good and evil that fans will remember from the books will play a significant role in the game's narrative, and will likely represent a more internal struggle in the player's character decisions when it comes to giving in to the temptation of evil, or doing the right th

Graphorns Known for having skin tougher than a dragon's and often aggressive in nature, the Graphorn is a large saber-toothed beast with a humpback and tentacle-like appendages around its mouth. One can be seen charging at a student while another allows a different student to pet it, perhaps demonstrating some distinct reactions a player can get depending on what moral choices they m

Brewing potions, finding artifacts, choosing a wand, and getting sorted in a house were all a part of the larger experience. It was a site that allowed fans to really feel a part of Hogwarts which is something the upcoming console title will have to replicate in some

**** Characters can be different genders, races, and even enter varying school houses. This is an open-world game with RPG elements after all. The zoom in on the owl on the carriage might also indicate players can choose a pet. Maybe it will always be an owl though which would also be f

No one is ever shown playing Quidditch in the trailer. However, there is a shot of two students, presumably one being the player, about to start or at least hop on brooms. As this is an RPG, one can expect mini-games. Hopefully, Quidditch will be added like Blitzball was implemented in Final Fantasy

The Red Dead Redemption franchise is a fantastic example of immersing the audience in an open-world universe. Through the character customization, the side stories, and the way in which the setting is designed, there's perhaps no greater title for giving players the experience of being a real gunsling

Except for the name, Hogwarts Legacy has been a known quantity since 2018. Some leaked footage came out before quickly getting scrubbed online. Since it was uploaded the first time this means it will never truly go away. Comparing its footage and this official reveal trailer is an article in and of its

The Great Hall also looks familiar from the films. However, there are two new elements. First of all the plain windows from the films are now stained glass windows that represent each house. The tables have cloths representing each house too. On the subject of this area, the late arrival theory can also be backed up here. Everyone else in attendance has seen the Sorting Hat and is already dressed compared to the pla

Playing off the previous titles, exploring ancient Greek mythology, and soon to step into the realms of the Norse gods, God Of War is the prime example of how fans can interact with magical creatures, notable artifacts , and other such legendary elements which marry into the story be

Anyway, that aside let’s go through the many layers of this reveal to theorize what exactly fans will be doing in Hogwarts Legacy news Legacy . As a brief note, this is not the first RPG adaptation. The second movie game, on the Game Boy Color , and the third movie game, on the Game Boy Advance , are turned-based RPGs reminiscent of Golden Sun. For those wanting a Harry Potter RPG experience to play in the meantime, track those d

The Hogwarts lake is visible in every Potter movie, barring the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 . What’s a shame, however, is the lack of details regarding the location in the films. Sure, the Goblet of Fire introduces merpeople, but that’s about it. This is where Hogwarts Legacy can right the wrongs of the films, giving it more scale and de

Going back to Persona , that initial thought may not be far off from how this game works. The trailer talks about students managing bonds with others, showing players go through various activities from classrooms to just sitting around. It is a great premise to emulate for a game based on the Harry Potter universe. No one has really copied Atlus in this way yet so it’s about t

Hogwarts Legacy has been officially described as " an immersive, open-world RPG ", so players can expect that it will involve a fair amount of exploration, possibly to known locations of the Wizarding World. The game won't be limited to just Hogwarts itself, so it could include places that have already been spotted in the reveal trailer, such as Hogsmeade, Diagon Alley, and the Forbidden Forest. One of the first questions players had after the trailer reveal was whether Hogwarts Legacy would be single-player or some kind of online experience, but there are currently no plans from Avalance to add a multiplayer m
