Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy is available on PS5, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X and PC. We will explain to you why the PS5 version is the best, and that is in one word: cat.
A few months ago, Sony released a trailer for Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy. Entitled “Next Gen Immersion”, it serves to highlight the specificities of the PlayStation 5 version of the adaptation of the Harry Potter universe. The console relies on its controller, the DualSense, to offer specific features to owners. The video nevertheless forgot one essential thing: on PS5, cats purr in the controller.
Yes, yes, you read well: the cats crossed in Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy purr into the DualSense. Indeed, the controller is equipped with a speaker – a feature taken from the DualShock 4. This component makes it possible to sound noises close to the character that you play, in order to feel more immersed in the action. With the purrs of our feline friends in the palm of our hands, this technology takes on its full meaning.
Hogwarts Legacy loves cats (like all modern games)
About JK Rowling
The editorial staff received the video game Hogwarts Legacy to test it before its release on Friday. JK Rowling did not originate it and was not involved in its design. We reject the active transphobia of the author, who funds associations that endanger the lives of trans people.
During your walks in Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy, you may come across several cats of different colors – mainly in the halls of the school of magic. If, in real life, these animals are fearful, even suspicious, they are rather pleasant in the video game developed by Avalanche. As you pass one, you’ll hear a friendly hum coming from your controller. It is, of course, awfully cute. In addition, Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy offers you the opportunity to caress these cats (who only ask for it) according to their very friendly behavior.
Like many recent games, Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy therefore highlights the feline population, very popular on the Internet (and the subject of many memes very shared on social networks). We no longer count the number of experiences where it is possible to pet the cat (examples: Forspoken, Hi-Fi Rush). In the video game stray, we have the possibility of embodying one. Today, we almost have the impression that a successful video game necessarily includes one or more cute cats (it’s not true).
In addition to the loudspeaker which purrs (and can soothe your nerves), the technologies of the DualSense are mobilized in a rather convincing way, whether in terms of vibrations (the haptic feedback makes it easier to feel what is happening on the screen) only pure gameplay (adaptive triggers when casting a spell).
