Hogwarts Legacy Gameplay Footage from Avalanche
From the gameplay footage, Hogwarts Legacy seems to be an exceptionally solid offering with mind-blowing combat scenes. With the story being based in the 1800s, players might find them familiar places from the movie look quite different. As soon as players arrive at the school, they would be sorted into one of the four houses in the Sorting ceremony. Each house would have its own dormitory and common areas. Places like the Hufflepuff dormitory would be seen for the first time ever in the game.
