Highlight of the week: Hogwarts Legacy
Genre: Open-world role-playing game – Developer: Avalanche Software – Release: February 10, 2023 (get the game on Steam)
Harry Potter fans have been waiting for a game like this for years: In Hogwarts Legacy you can freely explore the wizarding school Hogwarts and adjacent areas yourself and do everything that belongs to the everyday life of a wizard student: You create your own character and can use it to brew potions, master spells and find fantastic animal creatures.
The story is set in the 19th century, so you won”t meet many familiar characters like Harry, Ron and Hermione. Instead, a completely independent story will be told, in which your hero gradually learns more about his special powers.
Whether the whole thing will ultimately be a great game or just a mediocre open world with great scenery!
