Hogwarts Legacy has been in the news recently when they announced the coming gameplay sample. This game is being developed by Avalanche Software and follows students in Hogwarts as they get to learn spells and live as a wizard. The game was shown during the State of Play and demonstrated some of the graphics and scenes that players can expect. 

The gameplay showed the various things that players can expect such as the sorting hat and learning different spells. More plot details have yet to be released other than the main character being a fifth-year student. The story of Hogwarts Legacy revolves around trying to solve the mystery of whether or not a Goblin rebellion is coming. Additionally, fans know that they can create their own character for the plot and are not set on one specific protagonist. The potential for more based on the gameplay has many fans excited about the official release.

Spells can be used in combat and to solve puzzles within the world. Players can use blasting curses, stunning spells, enchanted weaponry, and more.

The game’s release date has not been officially released but it has been announced that it will come out sometime in the 2022 Holiday season. This announcement comes after the game had been delayed multiple times in the past. The game was originally announced during the PlayStation 5 price reveal event. Over a year ago, the game was delayed to 2022 after initially being set to release in 2021.  The release of the Holiday announcement seems to be more concrete than the original predictions that the company thought. This new release time will allow the game to hit peak sales for the holidays and grow to their potential. Hogwarts Legacy is set to become one of the most popular games of 2022 as Harry Potter fans get to live out their dreams of being in wizarding school. 

Hogwarts Legacy and many other games will hopefully provide a year full of exciting and  fun games for players around the world.
