Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment is continuing the promotional campaign for Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy with, today, a brand new video dedicated to the DualSense of the PS5. Clearly, the developers of Avalanche Software make us understand that the functionality of the controller will be exploited. “Witches and wizards should never part with their wands, and in Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy, the PlayStation 5 console’s DualSense controller becomes an extension of your wandexplains Chandler Wood, community manager, on the PlayStation-Blog. You will have many spells and the adaptive triggers offer greater flexibility in combat. As soon as you cast a spell, you will feel the full power of your magic, whether it is a basic spell or a particularly powerful charm. The different spells will give you unique sensations thanks to the haptic feedback, which is a direct link between the DualSense controller and your wand. These effects will only affect the right side of the controller. The DualSense will thus become a true extension of your wand in the game. When you parry a spell with Protego, you will feel the crackle of magic absorbed by the Shield charm.“
Before adding:The DualSense controller lets you take full advantage of many events around the world, whether it’s crushing ingredients with a pestle in potions class, feeling the cry of young mandrakes, or soaring through the skies on a broom or a hippogriff. The DualSense controller lets you feel all the magic of the wizarding world on PS5. We’ve also taken advantage of the DualSense controller’s LED lighting to give you customization options. When not lighting up with the colors of spells cast or wiped, the DualSense controller sports the colors of your Hogwarts house: blue and bronze for Ravenclaw, scarlet and gold for Gryffindor, green and silver for Slytherin, yellow and black for Hufflepuff .“
Immersion will also go through sound and image. “Visually, we’ve come a long way since our dear Hagrid on PS1. Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy on PS5 lets you experience Hogwarts and its surroundings in 4Kcontinues Chandler Wood. You can also choose between Fidelity and Performance graphics modes. This choice will allow you to customize your experience, whether you want to prioritize frame rate or visual fidelity. The PS5’s Tempest 3D audio technology will make you feel like you’re right in the heart of the wizarding world. With the crackling of flames as you cast Incendio, the bubbling of potions in cauldrons, and the unique soundscapes of the various environments, you’ll truly feel like you’re there. And if you’re playing without a headset, you’ll enjoy additional immersive sounds through the DualSense controller’s speaker. In particular, you will hear the beating of the wings of a hippogriff, or the different effects of the spells that you will cast.“
Naturally, the bonhome concludes by saying that the SSD of the PS5 will reduce loading times to almost zero, which will not surprise anyone. Currently, Hogwarts Legacy: The Legacy of Hogwarts – expected on PS5 therefore, but also on PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One and PC – does not yet have any release date. We only know that he will land this year.
