2022 Preview: Can Hogwarts Legacy survive a series backlash?

The ongoing J.K. Rowling affair may affect the success of this otherwise anticipated title

Hogwarts Legacy is an open-world action RPG set in the world first introduced in the Harry Potter books.

Due to be published under Warner’s Portkey Games label, it was originally scheduled to be released in 2021 for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and PC.

However, last year Warner delayed the game’s release window to 2022. It recently reiterated plans to release Hogwarts Legacy this year, along with WB Games Montreal’s Gotham Knights, which will arrive in October.

An upcoming book, ‘The Art and Making of Hogwarts Legacy’, could hint at plans to the release Hogwarts Legacy in September.
