Many Harry Potter fans and gamers are all looking forward to the release of Hogwarts Legacy, the long-awaited action RPG set in the universe of the wizarding world of Harry Potter, but in the 1800s. With multiple trailers, extensive looks at different gameplay elements, and many other reveals over the last few months, Hogwarts Legacy is shaping up to be a potential fan-favorite game for the upcoming year.
Even with the current controversies surrounding Hogwarts Legacy, many fans are still excited about the game, and each time more information about it is revealed, there is a resurgence of enthusiasm and anticipation. The newest trailer for the game is the one that dropped during Gamescom 2022, which reveals story details involving the Dark Arts and Unforgivable Curses as well as details the digital deluxe edition of the game and opens up pre-orders.
For its beautiful visuals and exciting gameplay, this Hogwarts Legacy trailer won best trailer at Gamescom 2022. This is an impressive achievement, especially considering the high caliber of trailers and games shown off at Gamescom this year, including, but not limited to, Gotham Knights, Atlas Fallen, Where the Winds Meet, and Dead Island 2. It is rare that a video game release brings together many different communities apart from just gamers, and Hogwarts Legacy seems to do just that as many fans of the books and movies in the Harry Potter universe come together to celebrate its release.
The most popular of all the trailers shown off at Gamescom 2022, the Hogwarts Legacy trailer gives players a lot of interesting things to look forward to. The game seems to involve a lot of difficult moral choices and winding narrative paths and patterns that will challenge players in various ways. The Dark Arts and Unforgiveable Curses are both steeped in mystery and darkness in the Harry Potter books and movies, which means they are also some of the most interesting parts of the narrative.
Instead of starting out fresh as a new student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the protagonist in Hogwarts Legacy is already in their 5th year at the school, which means players will enjoy playing a character that is well-versed in magic. So, hopefully, this means that players will be able to participate in duels and perform higher-level, advanced magic right at the beginning of the game.
The Hogwarts Legacy trailer at Gamescom 2022 shows off the game's darker side and is intensely intriguing and mysterious. Players can look forward to finding out more information about the game as the release date gets closer.
Hogwarts Legacy releases on February 10, 2023, on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S, with a Switch version also in development.
