Delayed Invitation
For PS4 and other past-gen console users, the Hogwarts Legacy release date was originally set for April 4, 2023. Now the release date has been pushed back to May 5, 2023, to “deliver the best possible experience”. Nintendo Switch users will still have to wait until July 25, 2023.
Everything To Know
As the game gets closer to its launch there’s no doubt that players must have different questions and thoughts about how Hogwarts Legacy will play. Here is everything confirmed to be included and left out of the title.

- Although broom travel is available, there will be no opportunity to play quidditch.
- Magical mounts can be ridden.
