    So prepare your wands, put on your wizard robe and start exploring this incredibly magical world of Hogwarts which is an amazing homage to Harry Potter universe which set the bar so high, that not even Levioso could put other games on the same level.

    Hogwarts Legacy is a compelling fantasy-RPG packed with stunning scenery, memorable characters and fantastic combat. Not only is it a brilliant love letter to fans of the Wizarding World, it excels as a game in its own right, so even non-Potter fans will find themselves immersed in its great story and characters.

    Thanks to its sprawling world and plethora of engaging ways to play, Hogwarts Legacy manages to set itself apart as the best Harry Potter related game of all time.

    Hogwarts Legacy is an experience of mammoth proportions, really difficult to summarize in a few words. A meticulous reproduction of Hogwarts, its intricate labyrinths, its infinite secrets, is accompanied by a rich and multifaceted game structure, which will make you feel like real Hogwarts students for the first time. The game is to all intents and purposes what a Harry Potter fan has always dreamed of. Even those who have never followed the adventures of the wizard, however, will find an engaging adventure, with a game world that is nothing short of fascinating. We really hope this is the start of a bigger project, because it would be a shame to limit such a successful formula to a single game.

    Hogwarts Legacy is definitely a beautiful-looking game that doesn't have a groundbreaking story, but does have a beautiful world, a fun combat system, broomstick flying, and of course an incredible amount of side quests and missions. [Issue#325]

    Hogwarts Legacy is probably the best Harry Potter game out there. Hogwarts and the wizarding world are very faithful to the original, and each quest is designed to make the content rich, but not deep enough.

    Hogwarts Legacy delivers a perfectly competent adventure, but its most unforgivable curse is its lack of imagination. Despite having access to an entire universe of possibilities, its sole trick is using magic to cover up tired video game clichés that feel entirely disconnected from the vibrant source material it’s adapting. The only unique aspect it brings to the open-world genre is franchise branding, making for a shallow experience that doesn’t offer much more than wish fulfillment for fans unable to let go of a dream.

The main bad goblin should’ve been more political and shadowy instead of the lazy big bad orc. The characters a really soft. Some student rivalries would’ve been nice. They treaded lightly. Hopefully they take more risks in the future. Could’ve been a 10 but got in their own way Expand

Emersive, atmospheric, diverse, filled with small details.The storytelling & acting, every aspect is exemplary. One can tell that the game was made with love for games, as well as for Harry Potter.
    Graphics are beatiful, but there are some minor graphical glitches & texture popups here and there. Its why it got a 9 instead of 10.
    For the rest, an absolute masterpiece
