Hogwarts Legacy may be the most ambitious Harry Potter video game yet, but its late-1800s setting and fresh take on the school means it has the opportunity to iterate upon the world. As such, there should be less pressure to adhere to what made the books and films great. Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is a storied building, with both valiant heroes and cunning villains finding a home within its walls, but more impressive still is the franchise's ability to craft places of almost equal intrigue like the Shrieking Shack.
