Hogwarts Legacy News Updates: Everything We Know

Hogwarts Legacy was heavily leaked up to two years before the reveal trailer was published. These leaks featured screenshots of an intricate character creation tool and gameplay footage that turned out to be very similar to the gameplay that was unveiled in the official trailer in 2020. However, further details surrounding character customization and gameplay are still forthcoming, meaning players know fairly little about Hogwarts Legacy's most intricate deta


On the subject of the carriage, one might also be able to deduce that players will come into Hogwarts as the semester is already in session. This is similar to how the protagonist of the Persona games always enter their school years. Why? Well, first years always go by boat. After that, they can take these flying carriages starting from the second year all the way to the seventh. The player is also alone without other new kids joining them which backs up this late arrival the


The huge variation in plant life in the Harry Potter franchise needs to be studied deeply. Some of this flora could be the key to healing a mortal wound, or creating a potion so amazing that wizards fight over

Rowling has also been quick to point out the amount of abuse she receives, complaining that one man told her he was going to compost her books. Other people have burned them. Because transphobes - whether you think JKR is one or not, clearly they exist - love to rush to extremes, the idea that someone has burned a Harry Potter book means we’re returning to Nazi Germany. Not only is this offensive on the level of anti-vaxxers comparing themselves to Jews with the yellow star, it’s also monumentally stupid. That famous photo of the Nazis buring a huge pile of books? It’s outside the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft - they were burning the books specifically to destroy decades of research into trans people.


It followed the same free-roaming template of the two previous titles but the graphics were considerably better than anything that had come before. The title was also the first one that allowed people to play as Harry, Ron, and Hermione, while you could also explore the grounds of Hogwarts on Buckbeak the Hippogriff. There's plenty to do and many secrets to uncover along the way as you look to keep the Dementors of Azkaban at

It's been a long time since fans got a Harry Potter game for consoles and, while the story won't be based on his own adventures, it's going to be pretty special going back to Hogwarts. So, with Hogwarts Legacy now announced and unveiled, it's time to look at how the Potter movie games fared with Gamespot reviewers in previous ye


On the other hand, games are developed by hundreds of staff, and the views of two people - even arguably the two most influential figures involved in said game - will not be shared by everyone. According to this report, the whole reason this trans inclusivity exists is because of pressure from the developers lower down the totem pole who are keen to balance out the views of Rowling in particular. But even then, we don’t know enough to be sure if this push for balance is out of a genuine desire to see trans representation in the game, or to get out in front of any incoming criticism. The fact you could stick a willy on a woman in Cyberpunk 2077 was frequently used to silence trans critiques of the game’s more problematic elements, and it’s natural that some hogwarts legacy story guide Legacy devs might hope a trans witch could do the same for their own game. We just don’t k


The Great Hall also looks familiar from the films. However, there are two new elements. First of all the plain windows from the films are now stained glass windows that represent each house. The tables have cloths representing each house too. On the subject of this area, the late arrival theory can also be backed up here. Everyone else in attendance has seen the Sorting Hat and is already dressed compared to the pla

Earlier this month, just as she should have been promoting her Christmas children’s book, said Harry Potter special, and as the hype cycles for the new Harry Potter movie and game are about to begin, she tweeted "War is Peace. Freedom is Slavery. Ignorance is Strength. The Penised Individual Who Raped You Is a Woman." This ignores the fact that while rape is legally a man penetrating a woman, the law denotes that a woman who aids in rape, by coersion, trafficking, etc, can be charged with rape even if they are not "a penised individual" and did not physically commit rape themselves.

JK Rowling has been in the headlines for three reasons recently; something she tweeted, the Guardian’s Person of the Year poll, and the Harry Potter reunion special. As a trans woman, you often get accused of being obsessed with JK Rowling, so I want to establish that there are three significant reasons she has been constantly in the press recently, and asking you all, once and for all, to shut up about her. Please. With a new Harry Potter movie and video game out next year, please heed this call.
