Hogwarts Legacy: Explore the 19th-Century Wizarding Worlds

Discover an immersive action RPG set in the Harry Potter universe, where you'll create your own character and attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

What is Hogwarts Legacy?

Hogwarts Legacy is an immersive, open-world action RPG set in the world first introduced in the Harry Potter books. Developed by Avalanche and published by Warner Bros. Games under the Portkey Games label, the game takes place in the late 1800s wizarding world, long before the exploits of Harry, Ron and Hermione.

In Hogwarts Legacy, you play as a student with unusual ability to perceive and master Ancient Magic. You arrive at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to attend classes and hone your talents. As you develop your character's skills and relationships at school, you unravel a dangerous plot that threatens to destroy the wizarding world's fragile peace.

Gameplay in Hogwarts Legacy promises a rich, lived-in open world for players to explore at their own pace. Core to the Hogwarts life experience are potions, charms, and transfiguration classes. As you progress, you'll build out your own skill tree unlocking abilities ranging from taming beasts to casting powerful spells. The game offers diverse activities like caring for magical beasts, broom flight, dueling other students, stealthily discovering hidden secrets, and challenging encounters with deadly enemies. Fans eagerly await the chance to freely roam the halls of Hogwarts castle, the surrounding grounds, Hogsmeade village, and the mysterious Forbidden Forest.
