Avalanche Software's Hogwarts Legacy is a rather interesting game, not only because of what it does right, but also because of the potential that it represents. As essentially the first big-budget Harry Potter game not based directly on one of the books or films, Hogwarts Legacy had a gargantuan task to complete: make Harry Potter's world work in a radically distinct time period, removed from the characters and conflicts that fans have come to love from the source material.
