The graphics for this game are pretty crisp and very colorful. I like the story line behind everything and the open world concept just adds to the game. Tons of fun.

A dream come true. The game Harry Potter fans have been waiting for. Delivers in nearly every aspect. Looks great, combat is solid and engaging, and the story is new and fun enough.

Even without the Harry Potter world skin, the combat and visuals are top notch for any game. A surprisingly deep and ambitious game with a solid story and fun combat.

Open world? Yes. Great story? Yes. Great visuals? Yes. It’s nearly a perfect game, and I’m not even a Harry Potter fan.

This game is everything I love about RPGs. Great storyline, great voice acting, decent character customization, good guidance throughout the game without feeling too linear or too open. The graphics on the Xbox version are better than the Nintendo Switch version for sure!

Really fun game with lots of Harry Potter series nostalgia. The level of detail in the world was really well done and the gameplay and quests have enough direction that you aren't just wandering aimlessly in a large world. There seems to be lots of opportunities to also venture out on your own to do your own customizations based on what aspects of the game you like the most. You can apply trait points to build and customize.

This game is very different than I was original expecting and I think I'm all the happier for it. The audio-visual presentation is excellent and the performance is plenty adequate. The game is an adventure throughout a light-roleplaying world. Hogwarts Legacy doesn't play like an RPG, but it borrows from the genre and embraces the open world a little more than it benefits from. It is a little awkward that classes only happen when you go to them or there is a "nighttime mission" requiring stealth when you can come and go as you please without a curfew. Beaides thes dissonant elements, it is a great experience to explore the castle and surrounding towns ans forests.

This makes you want to go to hogwarts even more. Hours of fun messing around with spells and interacting with the open world. The story is okay, the best part of the game though is just dinkin around. Really could benefit from a solid quidditch expansion.

What a magical, masterpiece of a game. Think skyrim meets fallout but straight Wizardry! Customization for the characters is great. Storyline is pretty dope! But the graphics and easy gameplay are just top notch. I sank so many hours on this one! Never glitched on me… never felt like they forced anything.

This game had me occupied for countless hours. I like the Harry Potter universe well enough but not a crazy fan. This game really pulled me in. The castle is simply mesmerizing. The rest of the world is also a fun jaunt. I was surprised and impressed.

First game I played in 10 years and is absolutely incredible. Remarkable game play , constant puzzles available outside main story line and within. Getting around the open world is assisted just enough when doing quests but you are free to roam at will. Really recommend to relax and take your mind off work for awhile.

I really enjoyed playing this game. It succeeded in all the areas you'd hope it would. Combat was great, the spells you're familiar with are all there, and I liked how you were even able to pursue a dark wizard story path. My only real criticism would have to be the time period that was chosen for the story. I would've prefered to play a storyline developed for the time period we saw in the movies. I feel like it would've felt more real. Overall though the game was very fun and did a great job reprisenting all the things Harry Potter fans want to see and do.

An amazing adventure into an unseen version of the wizarding world. While I am no expert in the wider wizarding world, I thought this provided a new perspective and more depth to what I knew. Not to mention the free-style of play where I can adventure as I please, and still go learn more spells at Hogwarts, that allows more freedom in play style and an individualized adventure. I look forward to playing it when I have a free moment and I look forward to going through the game to hit multiple different scenarios and game styles. There have been a few minor glitches, which were easily solved by reloading a game save, and there are a few moments where the graphics were not quite at the quality the rest of the game provides. Overall, it was worth the wait for my preorder and is worth every Knut!

I love this game. I really enjoy games that allows me to play how I want to play, without having to do things in a certain order. I have completed the whole game and heard they are releasing a second one, which I hope is true!
My 7 year old son also loves to play this game. There are some parts that I have to help him with, but the free play, as well as the option to have it be a story mode, or different levels of difficulty allows him to play and have a great time, but also allow me to play as well.

This game is in my top 5 all time! Love the story mode and characters that come along. Graphics and size of open world is amazing. My absolute favorite part is the smooth combat gameplay. They really mastered how it feels. This game has many layers and is a blast to play. 10/10!
