    SO. DAMN. GOOD!!
    They hit the nail on the head with this game. Level of details. Puzzle and challenges. Combat system. Exploration and open world. Lore and characters. This and much more. Well done!!!

    I am 35 and have been a big gamer all my life. I've played 100's of games in almost all the genre's. This game is a masterpiece and deserves recognition for all the hard work that went into it. Snowflakes can go cry while I'm slaying trolls and riding hippogriffs like a wizarding boss.    … Expand

    The visuals are stunning and the gameplay is challenging. I'd recommend this one for anyone even slightly into gaming and fantasy themes. Being a fan of the potterverse is not at all necessary to have a great time.

    Likely many others, I read all the HP books when they came out and wished I lived in the HP universe when I was a kid. This game captures of the magic of the universe while also making it darker. The combat system is different, but once you get the hang of it, it’s smooth. It’s not perfect as picking a specific target can be a mess in a crowd. The gear system isn’t the best either, butLikely many others, I read all the HP books when they came out and wished I lived in the HP universe when I was a kid.

It’s not perfect as picking a specific target can be a mess in a crowd. The gear system isn’t the best either, but luckily when you get to a specific point it’s easy to upgrade everything to be exactly what you want. Flying around on the broom and the easy fast traveling system makes maneuvering the map a good time. Want to explore? Fly around. Want to get right to where you want to go? Fast travel and then fly the remaining distance. I loved the game, beat it and completed over 90% of the challenges this past week. I really hope it gets turned into a tv show that goes as dark as the game goes.

    As for bad reviews go, if any negative review starts off by speaking of JK Rowling, take it with a grain of salt.    … Expand

    Just incredible. The fact that the game came entirely playable without the need for a first-day patch on PS5 is amazing. Great job. It is not every day we get a game as polished as this one.

    This game is a masterpiece in that it always has new things to discover and it never bores. Unlike other rpgs that are grindy and full of vast emptiness.

    I am a man of few words. But this game at every levels from the ground up is so much fun. The graphics, gameplay, combat, story everything is top notch. I have no clue why it’s not a higher score. I think it’s perfect.

    The critical reviews of this game based on the political ideology of J.K Rowling are wholly unjustified. This game is phenomenal, and the developers should be encouraged to continue this standard in future games. It is truly one of the most charming gaming experiences I have ever had. 10/10

Everyone crying about Hogwarts are over grown children that have fabricated a controversy to try and hurt JK. The problem is JK is a raging leftist herself, and supports the LGBT community. But there has been a lot of problems with men and young boy identifying as a girl or woman. Who have attracted women in a venerable state in bathrooms alone. You can try and deny it but it is dangerous. On top of dealing with someone who's mental reality is destroyed, we have to just shut up, and expect it as far as the trans community is concerned. Simply JK doesn't agree with this. She thinks it's would be appropriate for them to have there own bathrooms. She still supports the trans community. Truthfully i don't or at least not anymore. Now that the LGBT community has decided well now your kids are mine to influence. I could care less what happens to any of them. Maybe the trans community and those that supported them should have quit while they barley got ahead.… Expand

    This brings me back to the good old days of RPGs. This fills the void if you have ever wanted to experience a being the Wizard/Witch fantasy. What better source material then the Wizarding World. Strong contender for GOTY. Don't let any of the social complaints detract from what Avalanche has created here.

    This game is amazing. The detail is incredible, and walking about the castle is a delight. Flying on a broom, the Room of Requirement, casting spells, solving puzzles, there is just so much to love about this game!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the best games that I played in all my life. It was built in a scale 1:1 that made me feel like I was a wizard. I love just flying on my brum and exploring the world for dungeons because the combat in this game it's also really good. You have lots of spells and other items based on the fictional universe and it's so magical for me that you can use them. I am definitely going to play it more than once.… Expand

    All I hoped for. Amazing game, great story, huge open world to explore. It would be nice with some lighter face shades, as my character looks like she has just come back from long beach holidays (so not much like me), but that's a small thing.

    The game does an amazing job translating the world to gameplay and exploration. We have to keep in mind the challenges that they had to make wand combat, flying, brewing potions, gardening and caring for magical creatures dynamic and fun! It is not a perfect game, but it IS the game that fans were hoping and waiting for!

    One of the best experiences I've had with gaming in a while. Not even counting in the nostalgia, this game is a masterpiece. Even if you're not a fan of the wizarding world, even if you've never seen the Harry Potter movies or read the books, Hogwarts Legacy is a game you should play.

    Fantastic feeling and visual efects.i played hours and still want some more of that world. I feel like on drugs. And after I tried I need more... Another mystery another puzzle. Not the hard one but still making my brain work some more than usual.

    Is has some minor bugs, completely common in realeases of open world games. Once fixed, it's just perfect.

    A satisfying game that deserves only good ratings. I hope all the "insulted and humiliated" will finally understand that people may have an opinion that may not be the same as theirs. Stop whining and enjoy the game. J.K. Rowling, your Harry Potter world is beautiful

    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.
