VGChartz’s Miles Gregory: “Though the first week of my experience with Hogwarts Legacy was bumpy from a technical standpoint, I’m overall left having had a great experience courtesy of Portkey Games. Throughout my time with the game I could truly feel the care and consideration that the developers had poured into it to ensure that it felt like a bona fide Harry Potter experience.
Even if you were to strip away the Harry Potter franchise integration, though, you would still find a surprisingly refreshing and extremely solid title that feels substantial in size, scope, and variety without ever wearing out its welcome. There are a couple of key improvements that could bring it right up there with the best of them. But even without those improvements, Hogwarts Legacy stands out and is one of the more enjoyable video game experiences I’ve had in the last year. The developers have not just created a great game, but they’ve fulfilled exactly what I was looking for in a Hogwarts experience. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I think I’ll go back and finish up the series.”
