Harry Potter RPG Hogwarts Legacy Delayed

Hogwarts Legacy will not be released this year. The developers of the open-world Harry Potter RPG have announced that the game's release date has been delayed.

The first information about Hogwarts Legacy this year may not please fans of the magical universe of Harry Potter. It was announced on Twitter that the game's release has been delayed to 2022. No exact reasons for such a decision were given, mentioning only the general desire to refine the game.

In theory, the news should not be a surprise, because after the September announcement, the developers from Avalanche Software hardly spoiled us with too much information about the game. Add to this the lack of an exact release date (for months only "2021" was given) and you can guess with a high degree of probability that the team still has a lot of work left to do. We can only hope that despite the delay the devs will find time to share some details or footage from the title in the coming months.
