FAQ

What is Hogwarts Legacy?

Hogwarts Legacy is an upcoming role-playing video game set in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. The game is being developed by Avalanche Software and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. The player will create a character and attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where they will learn magic, make choices that affect the story, and explore the wider Wizarding World.

What is the Character Creator?

The Character Creator is a feature in Hogwarts Legacy that allows players to customize their character\’s appearance, gender, house, and abilities. The player can choose from a variety of hairstyles, facial features, and clothing options to create a unique character. The abilities the player chooses will affect how their character interacts with the game world and how they progress through the story.

Can I play as a character from the Harry Potter books or movies?

No, the player must create their own character. The story of Hogwarts Legacy takes place in the 1800s, before the events of the Harry Potter series, so none of the characters from the books or movies will appear in the game.

Will my choices in the Character Creator affect the game?

Yes, the choices the player makes in the Character Creator will affect how their character is perceived by other characters in the game world and can also affect the story. For example, the player\’s house choice will determine which characters they interact with and how they are treated by other students at Hogwarts.
