Summary
- Hogwarts Legacy will bring PlayStation-exclusive content to other platforms, including the Haunted Hogsmeade quest, later this summer.
- Fans can expect additional updates and features for Hogwarts Legacy, with details to be revealed in the coming weeks or months.
- Despite initial controversy surrounding the game, WB Games is committed to supporting Hogwarts Legacy with new content due to its success.
With the first anniversary of its initial release fast approaching, Hogwarts Legacy has teased future updates to the Wizarding World title, including some great news for players who purchased the game on a platform other than PlayStation. Hogwarts Legacy players have been clamoring for new content for some time now, and this update offers hope that good stuff is on the way.
Released in February last year, Hogwarts Legacy was a massive financial success for publisher WB Games and released to positive critical reception. It was seen as a great way for players to experience their Wizarding World fantasies, bringing the Harry Potter universe to life like never before. Still, the game was not without controversy, with some choosing to boycott the game due to the controversial views of Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling. As the dust has settled on the release, demand for more content has increased, with some content currently locked behind PlayStation exclusivity.
Games To Play If You Like Hogwarts Legacy
Hogwarts Legacy isn't the only game that fans of magic can enjoy; here are some other great titles that offer a similar experience.
On Twitter, Hogwarts Legacy confirmed that it would be bringing all PlayStation-exclusive content to other versions of the game. Notably, this includes the Hogwarts Legacy quest Haunted Hogsmeade, which will be arriving on other platforms "later this summer." That isn't all. The announcement also teased "additional updates and features for the game," which, according to the tweet, will be detailed in the coming weeks or months.
When looking at what to expect from Hogwarts Legacy in 2024, it's no surprise that WB Games is continuing to support the game. With such impressive sales numbers, it would be more shocking if the publisher had simply left Hogwarts Legacy to die. Now that the news of more updates and features is out there, speculation will surely begin among the player base about what it could possibly entail, with it remaining particularly vague right now.
What's Next For Hogwarts Legacy?
The prospect of more updates to Hogwarts Legacy is extremely exciting. It was comfortably one of the best games of 2023, offering upwards of 60 hours of content for players, and even more in some cases. However, news of new updates for the game has been quiet for a little while now, with the community left to speculate about what might come next for the game. It could even be that these new updates and features are part of upcoming DLC, although this is purely speculation with nothing officially confirmed.
