Jun 15, 2025Hogwarts Legacy on Nintendo Switch 2 is one of the best ways to play this magical adventure on the go. While it's not the most visually spectacular version, it's the most versatile and best suited for those who value the ability to play anywhere without sacrificing quality. Its charming world, fluid combat system, and abundance of activities make it a must-have experience for fans of the magical universe and lovers of open-world RPGs.

Jun 30, 2025Horwarts Legacy on the Switch 2 is a noticeable improvement over the version we got on the original Switch. The game looks much better, the gameplay is smooth and above all: no more annoying loading times - save for a slow door here or there. And as a very nice bonus you can upgrade from the original version for just 10 bucks.

Aug 8, 2025The Switch 2 version of Hogwarts Legacy can be ranked a step above the Xbox Series S iteration of the game. The presentation is miles above the original Switch version, and by comparison, it doesn't feel as if anything was compromised to make the port work. The presence of mouse controls gives the game more range in the gameplay department, but the base game was already strong enough that the new control scheme is more of a bonus rather than something that changes one's stance on the title. If you owned the game on the original Switch, then it feels foolish not to do the $10 upgrade. For Harry Potter fans who either want a dedicated version of the game on the go or own nothing but Nintendo consoles, this title is a must-have.

Jun 9, 2025You should definitely treat yourself to the upgrade if you picked up Hogwarts on Switch back then, only to put it aside after an hour or two in frustration. Or you can start fresh now because you already thought it wouldn't work back then. Either way, now is the time to catch up on a wonderful game in a version that does it justice.

Jun 20, 2025Hogwarts Legacy brings all the magic, charm, atmosphere, iconic characters, and memorable locations to the Nintendo Switch 2. The differences compared to the previous conversion are so substantial that it feels like an entirely different product, and the option to upgrade at a reduced cost stands as a truly valuable opportunity that the many fans of the Wizarding World should seize without a second thought.

Jun 27, 2025A technically solid, if not entirely flawless, implementation of Hogwarts Legacy. As entertaining as ever, but finally looking the same on the Switch 2 as it does on the other platforms.

Jun 20, 2025The main advantage of the Switch 2 version, if you casually ignore anyone who has played on a PC this century, is mouse controls. You can jump between the dual analogue setup and mouse functionality by flipping one Joy-Con on its side, and it transitions seamlessly between them whenever you want. There’s a mouse sensitivity slider which you can attune to your speed and, after some adjustment in nailing down the spell configurations with the buttons twisted sideways, it quickly became our preferred way to play.
