Hogwarts Legacy shows off its wizarding world

It’s been a year and a half since Hogwarts Legacy was first unveiled back, but today we finally got a few more details.

As part of a PlayStation State of Play event, Warner Bros. showed about fifteen minutes of gameplay, along with five minutes of talking heads. While it’s still too early to tell exactly what the game will be like (though, apparently, it won’t have microtransactions), it looks like the game is pretty far along — which is a good thing, since the studio said the game is still coming out on a bunch of platforms later this year.

You can check out the video and a few screenshots below!
