Despite its faults, the value of Hogwarts Legacy's simulation of the Harry Potter world cannot be understated. The chance for fans to walk in the shoes of the Wizarding World's established cast without being confined to their existing stories marks Hogwarts Legacy as the most ambitious title yet for the franchise. From taking the various Hogwarts classes to exploring the massive grounds of the magical academy, almost nothing is withheld from the player as they are slotted into their fifth year of studies.
