“We would like to thank fans all over the world for the overwhelming response to the announcement. Hogwarts Legacy from our label Portkey Games.

The long-awaited next-gen RPG is now out in 2022.
Hogwarts Legacy is being developed by Just Cause developer Avalanche and will not feature Potter himself. The game takes place hundreds of years before the advent of Harry Potter and lets you become the wizard you wish. You can be evil or good, explore the grounds of Hogwarts and see all the iconic sights of the Wizarding World. Prior to the game being unveiled in 2020, some footage was leaked online a few years prior.
The game will be completely single player and will hopefully fulfill the fantasies of many Harry Potter fans.

You're a latecomer to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and soon discover that you're no ordinary student: you have an unusual ability to perceive and master Ancient magic. Only you can decide whether you will protect this secret for the greater good, or succumb to the temptation of a more sinister magic,” reads the official description of the game.
