Houses can be chosen. That much is for sure. What isn’t known yet is if this game will have a Mass Effect -like morality system. That said, the trailer might indicate that students could go an evil route. In the fight against the dragon breaking free, the bottom right corner shows a masked man aiding the player. Maybe the skull masks aren’t all evil, but this could point to students being able to go a different p

Animals are a large part of everyday life in the Wizarding World. Often useful as part of the curriculum at Hogwarts, animals have very different abilities. It seems only logical that players should be able to choose the pet they have by their s

Phineas’ backstory may be more fleshed out in Hogwarts Legacy , potentially explaining why he was so unpopular. In the source material, he ends up helping Albus Dumbledore and even Harry, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger when they go on the run. It would be curious to see him finally in the flesh instead of being a mere portrait hanging on a w

Albus Dumbledore attended Hogwarts during the 1800s, meaning it’s highly possible the Hogwarts Headmaster will make an appearance in some form. Gellert Grindelwald went to Durmstrang around the same period, and it’s also feasible he’ll appear, as well, perhaps acting as the game’s main vill

The 66th Potions Championship was held in 1862, and the infamous Borgin and Burkes shop was established in Knockturn Alley in 1863 by Caractacus Burke. There were a few notable events in 1865: The Knight Bus was created, and Faris Spavin took over McPahil's position as Minister of Magic until 1903, serving the longest out of any other Minister. Additionally, the Ministry of Magic decided to relinquish full control of Gringotts Bank to the Goblins. In 1869, the 67th Potions Championship was h

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

No one is ever shown playing Quidditch in the trailer. However, there is a shot of two students, presumably one being the player, about to start or at least hop on brooms. As this is an RPG, one can expect mini-games. Hopefully, Quidditch will be added like Blitzball was implemented in Final Fantasy

**** Characters can be different genders, races, and even enter varying school houses. This is an open-world game with RPG elements after all. The zoom in on the owl on the carriage might also indicate players can choose a pet. Maybe it will always be an owl though which would also be f

The sorting process is sure to be a huge aspect of the game. It's unlikely that players will actually be able to sort themselves into one of the four factions within Hogwarts, but that doesn't mean they can't have the option to create an outfit to demonstrate their new allegia

Customization within games like these is absolutely vital for the audience to become attached to the story that's being told. Fans are certainly looking for some very specific things when it comes to putting their own little touches on their characters. From their attire to props and animals, there are countless ways that Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, Avalanche Software, and Portkey Games can continue to provide choices within the ti

It’s hard to see the first time but in the bottom right corner of the screen when the carriage is flying to Hogwarts, it says "Late 1800s." The stories involving Harry Potter take place in the 1990s whereas the Fantastic Beasts films take place in the 1920s. This means the team is giving themselves a lot of leeway to work with from the established lore. This will be less confusing for f

There are a few other Wizarding schools in the Harry Potter franchise, which fans have read about and seen onscreen. Durmstrang, Ilvermorny, and Beauxbaton are some examples of the other educational facilities that students might be able to vi

House elves are an important part of the everyday running of the school. Most importantly, there are hundreds working to create the amazing food that appears in the Great Hall during a feast. The Hogwarts Legacy spells kitchens should be an area players can explore and meet the many work

Even the most skilled magizoologists often struggle to tame or defeat a troll. However, players will have to take on their own version of the terrifying beast and will hopefully earn a few house points by doing so. A swish and flick might come in handy h

It has been over a year since the game's announcement and reveal trailer, and while most fans were expecting the unreleased title to be featured at E3 2021 , WB Games focused on Back 4 Blood instead, sharing no new updates regarding the production of Hogwarts Legacy . With a postponed release to 2022 and some hints dropped in recent interviews and leaks regarding the official launch date, what we know about this title is still heavily centered on what was initially unveiled when the game was first announ
