With the assistance of fellow students and professors, the protagonist embarks on a journey to unearth an ancient secret concealed within the wizarding world. The player controls a student enrolled in the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry who learns to wield an array of magical abilities and objects. The game, part of the Wizarding World franchise, takes place in the late 1800s, a century prior to the events chronicled in the Harry Potter novels. It's just not nearly worth the price of a AAA title for what you get.Hogwarts Legacy is a 2023 action role-playing game developed by Avalanche Software and published by Warner Bros. If you want to experience what it would be like to be a student at Hogwarts, you could play the first 4 hours of the game. For the adventures, you're basically always alone, which is a missed opportunity to show any kind of friendship or teamwork, which might have been part of the books (I didn't read them). You discover a few interesting or whimsical things in the castle. You go to class, explore the castle grounds, and sneak out for adventures. I will admit that the game did an okay job of showing what it would be like to be a new student at Hogwarts. There was nothing special about the mirror, no interesting backstory. But it turns out, it was just a graphics bug. I thought that was interesting and clever. The only time I was genuinely intrigued by the game was when I stood in front of a mirror and it showed my reflection in reverse (I was facing the mirror but the mirror showed the back of my head). I played it through to the bitter end, and I have not much to show for it. It's a game for children, it has no depth, and I didn't get the sense there is ANY replayability. I played on hard difficulty, which means I had to play the "color matching game" to break enemy shields. It's like watching a bad action movie, where the hero is surrounded by 8 enemies, but the enemies only attack 1 at a time. The combat never gets interesting because the enemies always take turns attacking you. There is a lot to do, but 90% of it is tedious busywork.
