Although JK Rowling’s universe had already begun to show signs of full success in 1997, when the first of the books was published, it wasn’t until the early 2000s that Its passage on the cinema screens made Harry Potter a planetary phenomenon. But curiously, apart from the LEGO versions of TT Games, when it comes to video games, he has not had the same luck. Goes Hogwarts Legacy break this tradition?
The curse of video games
as you are told, It’s odd that a franchise as powerful as Harry Potter hasn’t been a hit. parallel and continuous to that of films, books (of course) or the infinity of products of merchandising derived from his universe. And that’s probably it Hogwarts Legacy one that could break that little curse if we pay attention to the signs that it’s leaving us and some key events as we’re barely a month away from its launch.
And it is that although the game is not yet for sale, A fairly positive current can be perceived in the environment that surrounds it, thanks to details such as the reservations that are in progress and that some stores and platforms show in great detail in these weeks preceding their sale. Which will arrive on February 10 on platforms such as PC, PlayStation and Xbox.
So things, Hogwarts Legacy got an honorable fourth place in the ranking of the best sellers of Steam, which is the most well-known brand of all those that we have seen recently, despite the 59.99 dollars that it will initially cost and having to contend with giants like CS: GO, PUBG or the Steam Deck itself, which continues to sell out non-stop week after week.
It’s more, this position he occupies has a special merit as it meant the game suddenly jumped 12 places in the rankings in just seven days and achieved it after nine weeks in this PC Store best seller ranking. So yes, as its release date draws near, it’s clear that the buzz filling the entire environment is leaving signs that Hogwarts Legacy it can become a great success.
What will this Hogwarts legacy be?
Although the game doesn’t specifically focus on when Harry Potter studied at Hogwarts, it does. we can live the same experience from an open world role-playing game which reproduces quite faithfully all the universe that we have seen in the films. After all, we will be able to visit the halls of the school, meet the teachers and face dangers similar to those of the literary universe of JK Rowling and plunge into most of the settings that the Warner films have immortalized.
Will you be one of the first sorcerer’s apprentices will go to Hogwarts discover the secrets of the magical world? Something tells us yes… doesn’t it?
