If you’re a Potter fan wondering whether today’s Nintendo Switch deal is for you this answer is going to be easy. A faithful re-creation of all of Hogwarts’ glory awaits, and as long as you’re not expecting stories and characters (or even certain lore points) from the movies or books, you’ll be living in this game for the foreseeable future. If you’re not a massive Potterhead you’ll still stick around for the robust combat – spellcasting never looked so good after all. However, those after a rich progression system and Zelda-level open world quality may be a little disappointed here. We noted in our Hogwarts Legacy review that these systems feel a little messy and there’s plenty of open world bloat to pad out the main campaign.
Still, with a campaign lasting between 25 and 30 hours and plenty of extra goals to hit that 100% completion rate, Hogwarts Legacy represents excellent value for money today. Nintendo Switch deals can’t be judged solely on their cash vs hours ratio, but considering the open world nature and beloved setting this is a steal.
Of course, if you’ve got the choice between grabbing Hogwarts Legacy on Nintendo Switch or PS5 / Xbox Series X, we’d recommend going with the latter for performance. Still, if portability is of the upmost importance, it’s impressive just how well this larger title runs on 2017’s hardware. It’s not going to look half as good as it does on newer systems, but it runs and it runs smoothly.
