Hogwarts Legacy is now available on PC, and you will probably need to do a lot of settings tinkering to get it running well.
Hogwarts Legacy 2 is years away at this point, but the sequel could be the perfect game to make use of the Switch 2's features.
Hogwarts Legacy 2 could benefit from an expansion of the first game's enemy roster, and luckily, it has a large pool of creatures to draw from.
Couldn't go 2 sentences without bringing up JK Rowling's viewpoints (which are now acknowledged and supported by the UK Supreme Court). Time for all the "progressive" whiners to latch back on to reality.
Hogwarts Legacy has remained in first place on the UK retail charts, according to GfK data for the week ending April 19, 2025.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, following the release of the PS5 version, came in second place.
Astro Bot dropped one spot to third place, while Monster Hunter Wilds remained in fourth place. Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate is up one spot to fifth place and EA Sports FC 25 is up six spots to sixth place.
Playstation owners buy games.
Strange seeing Hogwarts there as I downloaded it for my son from PS Plus a couple of days ago.
2nd on the charts for a game such as Indy ain’t great.
Releasing half year after xbox version probably cooled off some demand.
This is a very good game, deserves the best chance to do well.
The real great performer here is Astrobot. keeping that rate of sales for a last year's game that is not GTAV, CoD and FIFA (now Hogwarts too). outselling MH Wilds and EA FC is kinda wild for Astrobot!
Hogwart's, Indiana, Astro Bot & Monster Hunter - that's a pretty nice top 4 once again.
I bet MachineGames are quite happy about the sales pouring in.
5 hours into the game, so far performance has been pretty spotty. In hogwarts it’s 60 locked ultra settings. In mead town it was crazy all over the place. Lots of world clipping as well and fast travel takes about 5 seconds.
I assume they aren’t leveraging the tech in for quick loads. The magic is cool, albeit not very impactful yet it fits for the world we are in. Not a fan of the transitions between opening doors as it really slows down a lot.
All in all though in the performance side it’s playable for sure. Just trying to get to the open world though as the first 5 hours is really dragged down by a lot of dialogue and side missions
As i stated before I upgraded from a 3070 to a 4090 and the game still suffers from major fps drops, especially in hogsmead where i get lows of 20fps to high of 60ish. the game doesn't stutter as much though unlike on my 3070 and i suspect it's because I now have a ridiculous 24gb of vram available to brute force the game. Something is definitely wrong with how the engine uses gpu memory or maybe even ram.
