    I had high expectations for this game and was afraid of being letdown but as high as they were, this game blew them away. Too early to call it game of the year but I’ll bet anything that it’ll be in the conversation.

    What a world to explore. The devs have outdone themselves here. Such a tremendous job they've put in with tons of love.

    The best single player rpg in the Harry Potter's universe. The world is massive, Hogwarts is full of secret and easter eggs, i love this game and i'm really happy i finally got a chance to be part of the wizarding world! A must play for every fans. If you like a challenge i suggest to switch the difficulty to hard.

    I am a 33 year old father of a young 1 year old and playing this game made me relive my childhoods dreams. If you grew up around The Harry Potter books/movies or not this is top tier best in class games of the past decade. Worth every dollar and I paid for deluxe edition!

    N'en déplaise aux furieux de ma pensée. Ce jeu est excellent, d'un respect colossal à l'œuvre. Et si la totalité des zones ne sont pas égales en elles en termes de beauté et d'intérêts... ce monde ouvert est incroyable d'immersion !! Grand oui

    I feel like they made this game for fans and kids that have never played a real RPG before.

    Anyone that has played witcher 3 or similar before wont touch this

    Trash for little kids with ps4 graphics and ps3 level rpg gameplay
    I had more fun playing buggy CP2077

    A tribute to Harry Potter movies. Made me go back years ago and remember my childhood times when I see all HP movies in a row. Brilliant!

    Over hyped by fans by a large margin.

    Its a standard rpg with nothing really special once you tear away the harry potter curtain. And if thats not even special to you then theres nothing in this game that you probably haven't already seen to “death” gameplay wise. Anyone thats been a gamer for over 5 years will find everything here dated and tiring. Graphics arent even up to ps5    Over hyped by fans by a large margin.

    Lets not even mention that your main character feels looks and acts like a gigantic wuss waiting for balls to still drop, no matter what cosmetic you buy.

    Get during a sale, and even then only if youre not super RPG familiar.
    Apparently theres some dumb drama revolving around the game and author. I couldnt care less about that woke garbage dispute. All I care is if the game is fun or not and it just, is not. Zzzz    … Expand

    It’s the Harry Potter game I’ve been waiting for since I saw the first movie and played the first game! As a 30 year old man, it makes me feel like I’m 10 again! So much magic and so many places to explore you’ll never get bored. 80 hours could easily be dropped on just exploring the surrounding valley Hogwarts is in. A rare 10/10 for me.

    Amazing Game. Open World feels alive and you can spend hours on exploring or side quests without processing the main story.

    Basically, it's the game of my life. They have managed to recreate Hogwarts perfectly.

    No one should stop playing this game for any reason.

    It’s what I imagine harry porter game should be. Game UI could be improve as too much hints given to player, should be more subtle and precise.

    Besides the gander nonsense and propaganda a perfect game. I’m not a huge Harry Potter fan but a have a blast in that beautiful world. And yes J.K is right with her statements but still keep this stuff out of Videogames! Thank you!

    The game is so weird in the way it’s trying so hard to be “gender fluid” makes me sick. Super liberal feeling game don’t buy. Game play isn’t great either, don’t have a very open world feel. The map system is horrible too.

    Didn't hear about this game until about a month ago but I felt myself being drawn towards it and its creator, JK Rowling, for some reason. I pre-ordered the deluixe edition and eagerly jumped in when it became available with the 72 hours early access and I must say it is very much my kind of game. Exploration and collecting, interesting locations and characters, and a decent story to boot.Didn't hear about this game until about a month ago but I felt myself being drawn towards it and its creator, JK Rowling, for some reason.

JK Rowling, the series creator, has built a great world and I wish her all of the best for success in the future.

    This is one I will continue until to get the platinum trophy. That investment of time and effort only reaches that level of investment for truly great games.    … Expand

    Its really good. Graphics, gameplay, the open world, everything feels really good. The only reason its not a 10/10 is cause in direct comparison god of war for example felt EVEN greater. Not to take anything away from this game its still absolutely fantastic.

    Wow.. the story was amazing. The combat felt awesome. Flying on the broomstick was fantastic. The way you learn spells. Hogwarts itself was made absolutely perfectly. Hogsmead and the Forbidden Forest. To the outside areas away from Hogwarts. Fantastically made game.

    After playing this game on both consoles the PS5 version is superior with the extra stuff and the performance , amazing game and well worth it at full price. Anyone that loves open world games should pick this up you won't regret it so much to explore and discover and the combat is great.

    Skvělá hra,škoda češtiny, ale i tak si to užíváme. Návrat do Bradavic se i bez Harryho a spol. povedl na výbornou. A kritiky ohledně spisovatelky jsou podpasové...ty ať řeší jinde a nehaní jinak fajn hru...

    A fun, just enough challenging, game that has not forgotten its young adult mystery roots. It got my son into this universe that grew up with me. Just a great game. Only weakness is that it would be better as a AAA game with way more interactivity

    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.
