Literally an absolutely stunning game!
Absolutely phenomenal game. This is such an expansive open world map, all taking place in the world/styling of the Harry Potter universe! It includes all of Hogwarts, as well as MULTIPLE surrounding towns, villages, and explorable map areas. The voice acting is not the best, but it's definitely not the worst. The game is very well done, and they did a great job pulling in it from all of the unique Potter fan favorites, and made a great storyline. Give it a try!

Exactly what fans needed.
The game is overall a 8/10. Unfortunately the PS4 requires loading for certain portions of the game. That aside, the story is everything you would want in a Harry Potty game. An original story, characters, and new powers. The ability to play the game’s side missions and explore is a large selling point. The fighting mechanics are somewhat simple, and they make the game too easy. However, the experience from beginning to end is enjoyable for what it truly is. A mysterious adventure in the wizarding world.

Great game! One gripe though…
Yeah haven’t gotten super far into the game but it is super fun and immersive. I have had a few minor glitches but they didn’t last for long. My one gripe was that the loading time takes forever and it’s usually a minute long, which doesn’t sound like a lot but it can really affect the gameplay and make it a little less enjoyable.

Wonderfull game
PS4 performance: runs really good, the delay in release has benefited this version! The optiins have graphics tab and lets you run the game at an unlocked framerate ( I played on normal ps4) and it works pretty good. Also had other options that you can turn off and on to suit your preferences, deluxe edition came with alternate cover and a few digital extras. Game Review: An almost perfect game that is a must play for HP fans. Its an open world third person action adventure rpg, you create your character in the beginning of the game. The world map is very huge and the star is of course hogwarts! The devolpers put so much detail in every corner of the famous magical school. You attend classes as part of the story and get to pick your house. Fans of the books and movies will recognize many locations and even some characters! The combat is fun and fluid, you learn a lot of spells and get to choose your own strategy for taking out enemies. The story, set in the late 1800's, is very mediocre and hardly had any interesting characters. The set pieces and graphics help in this regard though. If they had asked JK Rowling to write a unique tale for the game it would have benefited it a lot. The gear system tends to get annoying but lets you make your character look how you want so it's not so bad. A solid game which I can see becoming a new gaming franchise!

Hogwarts Legacy is incredible
As the title of this review states, the Game is incredible, this is THE definitive Wizarding World experience. Hogwarts Legacy is very faithful to the series and it allows you to embark on your own journey in a previously untold era. I recommended this to just about everyone I know that loves Video Games and Harry Potter. I don't often give Games a 10/10, but this Game definitely deserves that rating. There are bugs but nothing that ruins the Game or the overall experience. At the time of typing this review, I have over 112 hours into my playthrough.
