Hogwarts legacy, Warner Bros. Games’ entry into the Harry Potter universe, is the single-player game set 100 years before the events of the books. The game sold 12 million copies in its first two weeks, making it the studio’s biggest release to date.

The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One release dates are set for April 4th, while the Nintendo Switch release will be on July 25th.
