    Hogwarts Legacy is such a great game, I picked it up from Best Buy at an awesome price. And they had multiple editions to choose from. I grew up watching Harry Potter with my family so this game is pure nostalgia for me. I would highly recommend if you want a game where you can choose to do what you want versus following a specific path. Very immersive, you get to learn and use the spells from Harry Potter itself and have the opportunity to customize your wizard to look however you choose which I love.

    Excellent story that really compliments the Harry Potter universe. The combat is done surprisingly well, and the level of detail in even the most mundane of items is really taken into account. Overall a must-play game, for not only Potterheads but for all action gamers.

    Review- Hogwarts Legacy (Xbox One)

    Overall the gameplay is really fluid but I feel it’s missing some of the elements that make other games (like GTA) more immersive such as additional interactions with NPCs. Right now you can only interact with designated characters. Nevertheless, I’ve found the game to be very entertaining and the open world of the map is going to be great to explore.

    My only complaint is that there isn't more. lol That is how good that game is. If they added 300 hours more of content up to par quality wise of what they've released thus far, I'd cease to exist in reality and simply play this game 24x7. The mechanic's are on point, the story, the visuals, honestly my only complaint is the menu items were optimized for PC and they didn't adjust it for console. The maps make sense, the UI while not optimized for console makes sense. Honestly I never felt anything but fun in this game even when I was getting destroyed by opponents. Thats how good it is. I cannot wait for more DLC and am really hoping they will release a sequel at some point in the near future.

    Loved this game. Fantastic create-a-character that does a decent job of taking into account different races and hairstyles. Graphics are gorgoeus. Combat and sorcery is fun and feels very alive. Very cool story and side missions.

    Great open world. Even after 50+ hours of play, I still get lost inside Hogwarts. Plenty of sidequests to keep you busy, interesting storyline, great puzzles that are deceptively simple.

    Great grafics and fun storyline. Took me some time to get used to controlling my flying. I can easily spend a few hours at play. I love all the quests and interactions with all the characters.

    Bought this for my wife as she is a hige harry potter fan. It does have some glitches, but it may be due to her xbox not able to render as fast. PC games most likely will be better depending on the graphics card. My wife loves the game, the story line is not what she was expecting but she still plays it. Open world concept so you can almost go everywhere, except for the boundry lines. The contols for flying a broom need some work. Can't remap the controls for that as far as i know. I could be wrong though

    With this copy my trifecta is complete as I have the PS5,Switch and now the Xbox One version for my library and all at a very affordable price.This is a definite must have for any Harry Potter fan as you can now play as your own character in whatever of the four houses of Hogwarts you decide to join. Hopefully the sequel keeps in this route and doesn't try to stray from this type of gameplay but either way a great game awaits any Harry Potter fan who wants to join.

    Such a great game! There is so much to do from learning and vasting spells to flying in your broom, this game is great for anyone. Even if you are not a fan of the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts movies, this game will provide hours of fun!

    Thoroughly enjoying this game. Well made and hard to put down! Despite some reviews I've read, I'm playing on an Xbox OneX and other than the slightly longer than usual (as expected) load times, everything works perfectly! Well done making this game readily accessible on multiple platforms.

    I'm a HUGE Potter head and have been most of my life. I was in middle school I believe when the books came out, I was obsessed then and even more now. I love that I get to live out my dreams of being a hogwarts student. I'm sure the graphics are better on PS5's and newer Xbox's but I am 1000% happy with this game on my older xbox one s.

    The game is amazing, the story is amazing and the graphics are awesome. However, on the Xbox one X it takes quite a while for loading screens or loading when purchasing things from vendors, or even entering doors into other rooms or buildings. It kind of ruins the flow. It would be 5/5 if it weren’t for that.
