Reviews have praised the game’s atmosphere and compelling visuals. Hogwarts Legacy has done a great job at faithfully recreating the Harry Potter universe to provide an immersive experience for long-time fans and newcomers. 

Additionally, combat has also pleased the critics. Hogwarts Legacy allows for variety and creativity within the combat system while providing an adequate challenge to keep players engaged at all times. 

Many have also praised the characters within the world. Hogwarts Legacy’s cast is memorable and charming, making the game even better. However, the game is far from perfect. 

Hogwarts Legacy has performance issues on platforms like the PS5 console. The game can often suffer from frame-rate drops and issues like frequent pop-ins. Glitches and bugs further exacerbate this problem throughout the game. 

Currently, the game is rated 86/100 on Metacritic
