Hogwarts Legacy “SEQUEL” is now in development
The game is coordinating storylines with the upcoming ‘Harry Potter’ HBO series
Hogwarts Legacy is a 2023 action role-playing game developed by Avalanche Software and published by Warner Bros. Games under its Portkey Games label. It is part of the Wizarding World franchise, taking
place a century prior to the Harry Potter novels. The player controls a student enrolled in the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry who learns to wield an array of magical abilities and objects.
With the assistance of fellow students and professors, the protagonist embarks on a journey to unearth an ancient secret concealed within the wizarding world. Within two weeks, Hogwarts Legacy sold more than 12
million copies and generated $850 million in global sales revenue. As of May 5, 2023, its revenue reached $1 billion, and by end of October 2024, global sales totaled 30 million copies. Hogwarts Legacy received praise for its combat, world design, characters,
variety of content, and faithfulness to the source material, but criticism for its lack of innovation as an open-world game and technical problems. It received various accolades, including nominations for two D.I.C.E. Awards, a Grammy Award for its soundtrack, and two BAFTA Games Awards. A sequel is in development.
