    This game has almost everything I have ever wanted from a. Modern “Harry Potter” game. Great RPG, great sense of discovery and the world feels alive like they do in the books and movies. Wish there was quidditch and other wizard/mini games to play.

    Support good games and hard-working devs.
    Don't support woke fanatics and their boycotts.

    Possibly a lead for the GOTY, a lot to do, a lot of lore of the Amazing world created by JKR. A must have

    The game J.K. Rowling deserves.

    What a masterpiece by Portkey Games. To say they have never made a game like this, they did the wizarding world of Hogwarts justice. Looks incredible, plays incredible, sounds incredible (Both PC & PS5, though console is way more optimized as it stands - likely an official launch day patch/drivers for PC.)

    Sehr bedürftige Steuerung in Sachen Besen Fliegen. Map Design ist nix neues denn es wurden einfach überall Icons hinterlegt die man dann einfach abfrühstückst. Mann kann auf der Ps5 wenig der der HUD umstellen. Nebenstory sind sehr einfach gestrickt worden gehe nach punkt A rede dort etwas bekämpfe etwas und danach gehst dann einfach zum quest abgeben.

Man erfährt leider nur sehr wenig bis gar nicht über die Story und den Hintergrund der Welt von Hogwarts. Hauptcharakter fühlt sich wie eine Schlaftablette die nicht ganz bei der Sache ist. Die Aufgaben auf der World Map nur Punkturell verteilt und es viele große freie Fläche mit paar Gegner aber sonst nix.… Expand

    Jogo excelente, cumpre o prometido, gráficos lindos, estória envolvente e gameplay fluida. Apesar e ter encontrado alguns bugs está ok, c certeza patchs futuros irão corrigir esses empecilhos. J.K Rolling nunca esteve errada em suas falas, gostaria de mandar esses militontos todos para a pqp, ninguém dá a mínima pra vcs e estão se tornando piada!

    Extremely well developed game with combat full of depth.

    As a huge Harry Potter fan, this is the game I've always wanted, and they sure as hell delivered on this masterpiece !

    The game is very very good - the depth and open world in general delivers more than I expected. Fighting is open and brutal which also surprised me in a positive way. I love the game.

    Only cons are that the diversity seems a bit artificial - in the end the woke society is anyway not satisfied so I think we don't need to pump games up with loads of diversity stuff in a 200 year old world.

Also, the game missed out on becoming one of the best games ever - since some features obviously are missing, like moral effects on behaviour and a flexible story line; only few gear where the magic stick and the houses are more or less only design tools - what a lost opportunity!    … Expand

    Lovely game, It truly gives you the feeling you're a student in Hogwarts. They nailed the class feelings and combat is really good.

    As many have sed, this is the HP game we all have been waiting for.

    Mejor juego del mundo de Harry Potter hasta la fecha , y si no te gusta Harry Potter también, combina todo lo bueno de los juegos RPG y lo mezcla en este mundo de magia y hechicería, super recomendable 100% sin duda.

    We all have to put out there for this studio to know: This game is so **** good! The love and hard work that I am seeing is mindblowing! I literally lost myself exploring the castle, didn't know where I was, from where I came, but was a feeling of lost that I didn't experienced with a game for like 5 years. I just wanted to explore more and more and see all the little details.We all have to put out there for this studio to know: This game is so **** good!

    Avalanche, you deserve all the love from a gamer, you really beat the hype, the controversy, the experience to make a game of this magnitude. Congratulations and thank you for this game!    … Expand

    Excellent game! The exploration is super fun, the environments are really pretty, and the combat works well. You really feel like a student running through the Hogwarts countryside. The small negatives would be the camera is too close, and the combat targeting can be off at times

    As a Harry Potter fan, it's everything I could have asked for and more (except Quidditch. DLC?) Graphics are great, runs at 60 FPS, no glitches that I have run into. Combat is fun and engaging, and far more difficult that I thought it would be originally in a good way! I just find myself gaining levels by exploring the massive Hogwarts Castle.

    Simply put, this game is just FANTASTIC! It's gone above and beyond my expectations; which for once we're pretty high for a game.

    Is it perfect? No, is it good? Yes, very good.
    Incredibly fun combat, amazing visuals, compelling story.
    Be in Hogwarts.
    Has some technical issues with sound and perfomance.
    Other than that thank you devs for the game

    A daydream. Hogwarts is perfect down to the smallest detail and is truly alive, obviously not everything is perfect but thanks to the right compromises they did a super job

    Hogwarts Legacy has a great character design and could have had a great story too but the story is not so strong. the gameplay feels great and exploration is so entertaining. visually its great and Hogwarts castle is so detailed.

    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]

    It's been a decade since we've had a full Potterverse game, but the wait has been well worth it. Hogwarts Legacy gets just about everything right, with its involving storyline and myriad of main and side quests. Perhaps its finest feature though is Hogwarts itself, providing as much joy in just exploring the halls as performing set tasks. We doubt a single Harry Potter fan will be disappointed. We certainly weren't.
