The past few months have seen huge new additions on day one such as High on Life and the most recent Hi-Fi Rush. Fans of Harry Potter are eager to get back to the wizarding world and experience the magic of the franchise all over again.Ģ023 also appears to be the year that Xbox is going all in on gaming, with one major avenue being Xbox Game Pass. I'm hoping Avalanche takes the time and care Hogwarts Legacy on Switch needs, but only time will tell if the game on Switch is as spellbinding as its PS5 counterpart appears to be.Hogwarts Legacy is perhaps one of, if not the most anticipated game of 2023. I certainly don't expect the experience to be the same as it will be on the latest hardware. Creating a game across generations isn't an easy task, and Hogwarts Legacy doesn't seem to be pulling any punches when it comes to utilizing the PS5's power - we saw combat between multiple enemies and tons of spells (and special effects) whizzing past the camera, then there's the ability to fly around Hogwarts on the back of a broom, demanding significant draw distances from the console.Īll this means the developer could run into performance issues developing Hogwarts Legacy for the less powerful Switch.

There's almost no way that Hogwarts Legacy will look the same on Switch as it did in the PS5 gameplay, but it's likely it won't perform as well either. The question is, with so much going on on-screen, will the Nintendo Switch be able to capture that magic? I'm worried the PS4 and Xbox One will be able to cope, let alone the Nintendo Switch. The build we saw in the State of Play showcase was running on PS5, so we were seeing the game at its current-gen best.

Hogwarts Legacy's gameplay reveal introduced us to a richly detailed and, frankly, gorgeous take on the Harry Potter universe.
