    Worth The Wait

    First off Extremely disappointed on how long this took to get out to everyone. I then had to buy an extra memory card becauseof how large the download is. So having to order that, I had to wait even longer was annoying. Now actually playing the game im impressed. The details in it made it all worth the wait. This was an excellent choice and im so happy even with all the delays.

    This game is great, best Harry Potter game by a landslide. It definitely maxes out what the Nintendo Switch is capable of. The graphics are very rough on the Switch compared to other platforms. There is also an excessive amount of loading screens (going into a shop, into the school, or out of any of these), turns out these screens aren’t a thing on different platforms. Still playable on Switch, just have to be patient. I have experienced a couple graphical glitches, but nothing a reset didn’t fix. The graphics bugs were also early on, and haven’t happened since.

    Most anticipated game so far (right up there with Pokémon Scarlet)! I love the open world concept and the storyline! Best game to gift myself for the holiday.

    While my sister was staying in the NICU with her newborn, I bought this for her so she could take her mind off of the situation. She was SO surprised when I showed up to the hospital with it! She’s now well into the game and loving it. Best of all, after a month of being in the hospital, she was finally able to take her sweet baby home!

    Runs surprisingly well on Switch! Doesn't look too great visually but is a great option if you only have a Switch.

    Hogwarts Legacy Deluxe Edition on the Nintendo Switch is an amazing experience for Harry Potter fans. The story is engaging, and exploring the wizarding world feels magical. The graphics and performance are surprisingly good for the Switch, and the portability makes it even better. The extra Deluxe Edition content adds more fun to the adventure. Definitely worth it if you want to enjoy Hogwarts anywhere.

    I played Hogwarts Legacy Deluxe Edition on my Switch OLED and it’s magical! Amazing world, fun quests, and runs surprisingly well on the Switch. Worth it for fans of Hogwarts!

    Wonderful game! Starts slowly, but pretty soon, the game allows you to explore the beautiful surroundings around and in Hogwarts. The game takes a lot of elements from other open world games, but all in all, it does have a certain charm to it.

    I played this on the ps5 when it first came out and had a blast. Naturally i wanted to replay it on my Switch. Comparing the two, obviously the ps5 hardware is more powerful so its going to look better. Playing on the Switch OLED isnt terrible tho. I had some frame rate drops here there and the loading screens take a little longer that im used to, but all together im impressed with how well the port is. I def recommend this to anyone on the fence (play on ps5/PC/xbox if you have the option to, if not then play the Switch version!)

    The graphics arent as crisp but the gameplay doesn't lag at all on my first generation switch. Excellent for the die hard HP fans, getting to explore the castle and grounds as well as Hogsmeade is just fantastic.

    I had so much fun with this game. I’ve always been partial to open world games and this one does not disappoint. The world is vast, the quests are engaging. You fly, learn spells, mix potions and befriend magical creatures that you catch in the wild. You’ll have epic battles while unlocking secrets in and around Hogwarts. There are hidden treasures, rooms, and secrets inside Hogwarts’ grounds. If you’re a fan of the books and movies, you’re going to love this. This game has so much content and it will take a substantial amount of time to do everything the game has to offer. I highly recommend this game

    It has a great story line with some side quests, the the graphics are also pretty good. I also linked my wizardingworld account and Switch account with my WB, so I got quite a few extra goodies.

    Although, it has some frame rate issues. And, some loading time lags compared to the other game consoles. Hogwarts runs on the switch and does it well in terms of game play. I bought it for my son and at first he was leery of a given complexity. It became natural for him to cast spells and be immersed in the game. He has grown to like the game on his switch.
