Hogwarts Legacy is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated games. Despite everything, this news is likely to disappoint more than one.
When we think of Harry Potter, we obviously think of Hogwarts and magic, but also of magic brooms. And especially in Quidditch, this sport very famous in the wizarding world which has given rise to competitions since the Middle Ages according to its author. Well in Hogwarts Legacy it will not be possible to play it.
Farewell to Quidditch in Hogwarts Legacy
One can learn the news via a FAQ on the official website.
Is Quidditch playable in Hogwarts Legacy?
Quidditch is not playable in the game. However, broom flying for traversal and broom racing challenges is part of the game. Players can also fly broomsticks to explore new and familiar locations around Hogwarts castle.
It will therefore be possible to fly with a broom in Hogwarts Legacy (fortunately) but it will not be possible to indulge in the most famous sport of the wizarding world. This is likely to displease especially when you know that it was playable in the first generation of Harry Potter games. On the other hand, the developers do not specify whether Quidditch will be completely absent from the game. We could very well imagine the possibility of attending a match and why not organizing bets (prohibited at Hogwarts).
As a reminder, every year at Hogwarts a tournament is organized between the four houses (Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, Slytherin). The house that wins the most matches wins the Quidditch cup. The game is still scheduled for February 10, 2023 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series.
