A Hogwarts Legacy insider has appeared on the scene, willing to shed light on some of the nitty-gritty of the gameplay and other details. The offer has been taken up with enthusiasm, and many fans have received answers to questions they've been wondering about since the first promotional images for Hogwarts Legacy were released.
Throughout its development, Hogwarts Legacy has had plenty of leaks which kept fans on their toes, raising and sometimes lowering anticipation for the game. Fans learned about the possibility that Quidditch used to be a part of Hogwarts Legacy, and there has been information shared about game length, mounts, dates, and various different details. These leaks gave way to speculation about wider implications for the game, just as much as the officially released trailers and gameplay have. However, fans can now confirm some of those questions and theories with a reliable source.
In a new Reddit post, the insider introduced himself as Taylor Liddell, son of Hogwarts Legacy Design Director Chad Liddell and also a former QA tester for the game. He has recently been given permission to create video guides for launch on his YouTube channel. But he also wanted to open the floor to fans to ask him some questions about Hogwarts Legacy, and he'll do his best to answer as far as his NDA allows. Naturally, after the Reddit mod team verified the source, hundreds of comments poured in, and thanks to the curiosity of gamers, Liddell revealed some interesting details about Hogwarts Legacy.
In terms of clothing, Liddell disclosed there are a ton of options to choose from, and while he's not an expert on fashion, he also confirmed that it follows a Victorian-like style for the most part. He also stated that, much like on the cover art, players will be able to use clothes with hoods, which can be removed at will. The choices for the Room of Requirements were described as massive, and what the marketing videos showed apparently barely scratched the surface. When it comes to building the player character, Liddell said that fans will be able to create a variety of different builds by using talents. However, these choices will be locked in, so there's no changing them later down the line.
Players will be able to modify their characters after the beginning of the game. This answer came when Liddell was asked about whether scars can be added later on. The game's performance was also mentioned. He's been playing Hogwarts Legacy on PC, and he said it runs decently on his computer, but he has an Nvidia RTX 3080. Liddell also teased an area south of Hogwarts, which is his favorite, but it hasn't been revealed yet.
There have been plenty more questions and answers in the comments and more arrive with every minute. This is an exciting time to learn just a little bit more about the possibilities Hogwarts Legacy holds for its players.
Hogwarts Legacy launches February 10 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S, April 4 for PS4 and Xbox One, and July 25 for Nintendo Switch.
