Hogwarts Legacy is the victim of a massive leak of visuals just days before its release. No big spoilers though, but fans are as disappointed as they are excited.
Definitely, there are big leaks at Warner. Between Suicide Squad, which created controversy and angered players, and Hogwarts Legacy, which on the contrary makes the excitement rise to the highest point, the games are out before time. While it will arrive on PS5, Xbox Series and PC on February 10, Hogwarts Legacy is the subject of numerous leaks on the web. In addition to some images of the game, it is a large part of the artbook which has been unveiled, revealing many places and creatures completely new.
If some players are disappointed to be spoiled, the hype has never been so strong among fans. Warner has obviously had the rug pulled from under his feet and his game has been revealed in advance everywhere on social networks. Needless to say that an anti-spoiler combination is required, even if the information revealed should not take away your pleasure, quite the contrary.
A universe that promises to be ultra faithful
The pages of the artbook ofHogwarts Legacy raise the hype among fans of the Harry Potter franchise since you can find a whole bunch of magical creatures as cute as they are terrifying. Trolls, Hippogriffs, Goblins, Dragons, Phoenixes… Avalanche Studio seems to have pulled out all the stops to immerse us in the famous wizarding world. As a bonus, many characters have been unveiled, including teachers already partially revealed by Warner, as well as many iconic locations from the franchise such as the greenhouse, the great hall and more.
Hogwarts Legacy: complete map, lifespan … it’s huge
The icing on the cake, the full menu ofHogwarts Legacy has also been leaked and promises an absolutely huge open world with many places to visit there too, and even a village full of shops where it will be possible to shop. On the other hand, we are told that the map would have been reduced by almost a quarter, but that the areas cut during editing remain visible, although they are no longer explorable. They could be the subject of future DLCs. Quidditch, however eagerly awaited by fans, would also have been abandoned along the way after a few months of development.
The leakers have also provided a ton of information, in particular concerning the lifespan which already promises to be enormous there too. Besides the main quest, we are told thatHogwarts Legacy will be extremely rich in secondary content and will multiply the quests. We are also told more than a hundred puzzles to solve and objects to collect. It will be possible to complete missions for each Hogwarts house. Moreover, we are told that some quests could take us to visit part of the famous Azkaban prison. The game also promises many dungeons to explore as well as a good batch of bosses. It is also recommended to do several side quests before advancing in the main quest. The game will be in the form of a real RPG with a character to create from scratch and to optimize with pieces of equipment, including a wizard’s robe, a wand or even hats.
The informants also reveal to us the lifespan of the title, again rather substantial. In normal mode, it would take at least around 35 hours to see the end of it in a straight line and more than 70 to complete the game at 100%.
Seen from here, Hogwarts Legacy promises to be absolutely huge and the fans are already won over. Even before its release, the game is a hit on Steam and is among the biggest pre-orders on several platforms. However, many other players are less fond of the game and have tried to destroy it on Steam. A call for a boycott was even launched shortly before.
Nevertheless, Hogwarts Legacy will arrive on February 10 on PS5, Xbox Series and PC, in April on PS4 and Xbox One and later in July on Switch.
If you play on PC, remember to check the required configurations, these are particularly demanding.
