Despite being a title aimed at a slightly older audience, Hogwarts Legacy definitely shouldn't lose some of the fun of the franchise. The trailer for the game was quite serious, but the complete collection of LEGO games are a great example of how best to play in this magical unive
Many important events happened in 1899, though it seems unlikely they'll be shown in the game, considering the Fantastic Beasts movies are in the process of covering them and due to their placement at the very end of the century. Ariana Dumbledore accidentally killed her mother and was taken under the care of her brother, Albus, who then graduated Hogwarts with flying colors. Soon after, Albus befriended Grindelwald, forming a brief, romantic relationship with him. This ended after a three-way duel between them and Albus's brother, Aberforth, when they accidentally killed Ariana Dumbledore.

The beauty of a good RPG is its ability to draw the player in and allow them to discover a world or a universe for themselves that has its history and lore. The lore in a game can be accessed through in-game history books, codexes, diaries, conversations with NPCs, and more. Here are some of the best Western RPGs with in-depth lo
Diving into a good RPG for a gamer is much like committing oneself to a good book. The idea is for players to lose themselves in these deep worlds of fantasy, science fiction, and even the modern-day.

Elladora was the younger sister of Phineas Nigellus Black ( Sirius Black's great-great grandfather and the " least popular Headmaster Hogwarts ever had ," according to Sirius in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix ) and was known for beheading house elves when they got too old. She and her brother could make an appearance as young Hogwarts students around a decade later, or players may even get to see Phineas as Headmaster sometime after that. Oswald Beamish was a Goblin's rights activist and could play a role in the Goblin Liberation Front of the 18
Even if the story won't be in any way linked to the characters fans remember from the books and films, it may possess tonal similarities. We know that Hogwarts Legacy will focus on ancient magic that only your character is able to understand and use, and that player choices will be one of the main pillars of the game's mechanics.

The Chamber of Secrets may be an extremely secretive place that no one had supposedly uncovered for so long, but it's also one of the most famous locations in the castle for fans and it's hard to see how it could be left out of the g
Additionally, in 2018 rumors of this game started to spread like wildfire when someone leaked some early footage of Hogwarts Legacy on Reddit. This included what looked like a Fanged Geranium snapping at a student in Herbology class and the player fighting a horde of Goblins. Since magical plants are their own category and Goblins are considered intelligent humanoid creatures, they will not be included on this list. The leaked footage was taken down shortly after by Warner Bros. due to copyright infringem
Acromantula This species of giant spider was first introduced in Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets when Care of Magical Creatures instructor Rubeus Hagrid was discovered to own one as a pet.

Hogwarts Legacy may come across this issue with the Wizarding World, but Batman: Arkham City is a perfect example of how a well-known location like Gotham, can be portrayed in a unique way. For many this is the definitive version of the comic book city, combining elements from the source material and Rocksteady's own desi
