We will keep you updated on future developments regarding the Switch port of Hogwarts Legacy. If that’s the version of the game you inted to play, then it might be best to wait for some early performance reports. However, it’s not clear how Avalanche is going to get such a technically demanding game to run on older hardware. Assuming the content is largely the same, then you should know that we found Hogwarts Legacy to be a fun open-world adventure title with lagging RPG elements.

It should also be noted that nobody really knows what to expect from the last-gen versions of this game. And like before, the PS4 version will include exclusive content in the form of a Felix Felicis Potion recipe and the Haunted Hogsmeade Shop quest. Every pre-order will come with an Onyx Hippogriff mount, and the Deluxe Edition will include a Thestral mount and Dark Arts-themed cosmetics - plus a bonus Dark Arts-themed hat if you buy the Digital Deluxe Edition. While the Xbox One and PS4 versions are late to the party (and Nintendo Switch version is still a few months out), they all still have the same pre-order bonuses. We do not know if the Switch version will use the Cloud or if it will significantly cut back on graphics for the sake of performance and stability.

Currently, that port is still slated for a July 25 release, and it is still under wraps. Unfortunately, the Xbox One and PS4 ports are forgoing any early access plans.īut what of the Nintendo Switch version, you might ask. Some Hogwarts hopefuls might remember that anyone who pre-ordered Hogwarts Legacy on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5 got to play the game a few days early.
