Warner Bros. announces that Hogwarts Legacy will be released on April 4 for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The Switch version will follow in the summer. The release for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and PC is scheduled for February.
The publisher creates the release for the previous generation Xbox and PlayStation consoles known on Twitter. The game will be released for these consoles on April 4. The company also refers to a page with frequently asked questions, to clear up some ambiguities about the Harry Potter game. Over there can be read that the game will be released for the Nintendo Switch on July 25.
Hogwarts Legacy has been postponed several times and in August it was announced that the game would be postponed to 2023. The developer Avalanche Software needed more time to finish the game. The release date is now February 10, 2023, but this announcement did not mention a release on the Xbox One, PlayStation 4 or the Switch. Now it appears that even more time is needed for these versions. Specifically the Switch version.
Hogwarts Legacy takes place at Hogwarts, but is otherwise separate from the story in the books. So players are unlikely to encounter Hermione and Harry in the game. Instead, players can create their own character in the game to attend wizard school.
