Whether anything in it is true or not, the Reddit post contains lots of information for Harry Potter fans to peruse and speculate over. According to the leak, Hogwarts: A Dark Legacy will be set decades in the future, after Harry Potter 's children have graduated from the magic academy. The game's main villain is a former Death Eater, if not quite as powerful as Voldemort.

The most important point Hogwarts Legacy must get right, however, is balancing the open world map. Games like Skyrim have managed a perfect balance between exploration and story for players to shift between. Side quests that promote narrative points while offering a chance to see a new part of the map, or find a new Hogwarts Legacy beast in the Forbidden Forest , will be the key to success for a franchise hoping to succeed with a massive open world game. Without content to make exploration purposeful, the game will be boring and feel empty. Skyrim avoided this by adding plenty of side stories and quests that vary in requirements, extending adventures to players who might want to take a break from the main plot. Choice is the key for any game that offers a whole world to a character. The map must have rewards that make it worth explor

Publisher Warner Bros. Games announced Hogwarts Legacy at the PlayStation 5 Showcase in mid-September, following a long period of murmuring that a console Harry Potter game was on the way.
