If you have even the slightest fondness for the Harry Potter novels or movies, then Hogwarts Legacy is certainly a game worth experiencing. Although, multiple post-launch patches have made the visual and performance stumbles a lot less frequent. Just be aware that a lot of the open-world activities are fairly repetitive, and you will need to tolerate some technical hiccups. Hogwarts Legacy also packs an original Wizarding World story that puts you at the center of the action, and with a massive open world beyond the castle to explore, you can easily lose dozens of hours to this game. The developers at Avalanche Software have done a spectacular job of bringing the wizard school to life and Hogwarts Legacy shines brightest when you’re roaming its corridors discovering hidden secrets and interacting with its many colorful inhabitants - just watch out for Peeves the poltergeist. The clue is in the name, but Hogwarts itself is the real star of the show here. The experience is occasionally blighted by bland open-world padding, and it's not the most visually dynamic game, but vibrant combat, a deep progression system and an astonishing recreation of the iconic magical school make it hard to put down.” In our Hogwarts Legacy review, we labeled the game “a magical experience” and said, “Hogwarts Legacy delivers on the promise of creating your own story within the beloved Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

Hogwarts Legacy currently makes our list of the best PS5 games, and it’s one of the strongest licensed games in recent memories allowing fans of the Harry Potter universe to step into the beloved Wizarding World.
