While expected for this summer, the Nintendo Switch version of Hogwarts Legacy: The Hogwarts Legacy is experiencing a major delay. The release is now scheduled for November.
Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy is one of the events of the year. This adaptation of the Harry Potter universe has recently been available on PS4 and Xbox One after appearing on PS5, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series But there are a priori difficulties in development that force Warner Bros. to announce a major delay .
“Hogwarts Legacy will be released on November 14, 2023 for Nintendo Switch. We know fans can’t wait to play on Switch, but creating the best possible experience is our priority. “Thank you for your patience,” says the editor a May 12 tweet. The date of the announcement is well chosen as it is the release day of a specific The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Having all eyes on him is the best way to spread bad news.
A few more months of patience for the Switch version of Hogwarts Legacy
About JK Rowling
The editors were given the Hogwarts Legacy video game to review ahead of its release on Friday. JK Rowling did not invent it and was not involved in designing it. We reject the author’s active transphobia, who funds anti-trans associations that endanger the lives of trans people.
Originally, Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy was due to release on Nintendo Switch on July 25, knowing that this version was confirmed after the others. So console owners will have to be patient before discovering this magical adventure. There will be another argument on this console: being able to play it anywhere.
The ambition for Warner Bros. remains immense, as the Nintendo Switch doesn’t typically offer enough power to run a game as rich and bountiful as Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy. The desire not to migrate to cloud technology like others is commendable. But pay attention to the performance upon arrival. A title like The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, which is fairly comparable in scope, offers a muted experience on Nintendo Switch.
Note, however, that Hogwarts Legacy: Hogwarts Legacy runs reasonably well on PS4 and Xbox One while the two consoles have passed the 9 year mark. The specialist site Digital Foundry pointed out the necessary cuts in its technical analyzes and at the same time emphasized “an experience that holds up quite well given the age of the consoles”. We’ll see if the miracle happens on Nintendo Switch too.
