    Nice Harry Potter Experience With A Mediocre Story

    It really delivered the Harry Potter experience. Hogwarts is amazing. It's so much fun just to look around the place. Unfortunately, the story was just so-so. I'd have much preferred a more linear, story-driven game. After all, so much of Harry Potter is in the friendships and relationships between the characters. It would have been cool to have a story about three close friends on an adventure together - like in the books - rather than an open-world. The combat is nice. A lot of the spells seemed a little redundant and switching between spell-sets was awkward.

    Hogwarts Legacy is a really great game! Probably one of the best video games in a long time. It’s very immersive, I really feel like I’m actually walking around Hogwarts and going to classes. Overall, I highly recommend Hogwarts Legacy to all Harry Potter fans!

    By far one of the best games out. It’s soothing, intense, creepy, funny, over all beautiful design and gameplay. It’s very fluid with movement best part it’s always something new to do just when you thought!!

    I had no clue this game was on the PS4—it's been a delightful surprise! I'm completely engrossed, finding it hard to tear myself away. Plus, it runs seamlessly on the PS4 without any lag issues. For fellow Harry Potter enthusiasts, I wholeheartedly recommend giving this game a go.

    The game is epic and probably the first HP game to have an open world environment. You can build your own character roam around Hogwarts and what not. It's like living the magic world all over again. Best Buy provided amazing deal on this game and I got it for just 20 bucks during Black Friday.

    The attention to detail in this game is incredible. The graphics are just beautiful. They make you want to explore the open world map non-stop. The storyline and side quests are so fun. I love that their are different quests depending on the house you’re “sorted in”.

    Very fun game, and very “Harry Potter” universe. It is a little tough at the outset. And will have to start the kids over on Easy mode, but all in all, highly entertaining.

    I am a big HP fan, but honestly not a big gamer. I heard good things about the game and wanted to try doing something different, and since all my fam are HP fans I thought this would be something fun to do together. I have really enjoyed playing this game! It looks beautiful. Walking around the castle and all of the different elements of being immersed in the wizarding world make this extra cool for me. I think most HP fans would really enjoy playing this, and even if you are not necessarily, it's a great game with a cool story line.

    Such an awesome game! Brings be back to my childhood. The graphics may not be the best in the industry, but they're still quite good. The storyline is interesting and the flexibility to change the difficulty throughout is nice. Highly recommend!
