Developed by Avalanche Software, Hogwarts Legacy is an open-world action RPG set in the world first introduced in the Harry Potter books.
Taking place during the late 1800s, it sees players assuming on the role of a new student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
“The attention to detail and the passion and the love for this brand that the team has is astonishing,” Hogwarts Legacy narrative director Moira Aquier said during Thursday’s presentation.
“Fans of the series will know that ancient magic has been around for a long time to say the least and that Hogwarts itself is a stronghold of ancient magic. And the avatar, the player, has the ability to sense it and possibly wield it or control it.”
