Hogwarts Legacy was released across the globe back in February 2023. The game is set in the popular fantasy universe of the Harry Potter franchise and was initially launched for the PC and console platforms. Now, the title has finally been rolling out for the Nintendo Switch.

Hogwarts Legacy Nintendo Switch Release

For those unaware, Hogwarts Legacy was intended to launch on the Switch handheld gaming console earlier, but it faced a delay. The game was first released on the PC, PS5, Xbox Series X, and Series S in February, while the PS4 and Xbox One release followed in May. The Switch port was initially scheduled for July but was postponed to November.

According to the developers, Hogwarts Legacy was optimized to offer gamers the “best possible experience”. The game running on this portable console is quite a task considering the Switch’s hardware. This means that there would likely be compromises with visual fidelity like lowered resolution and texture quality to maintain a playable framerate during intense gameplay. The Hogwarts Legacy is set around 100 years before the Harry Potter series and allows players to create their very own wizarding character.

So expect to learn and use various magic spells to get ahead in class and also in combat. Hogwarts Legacy is currently available for purchase on the Nintendo Store for a 60 US Dollars price tag. Meanwhile, the Digital Deluxe Edition offers a Dark Arts Pack, Dark Arts cosmetics, and a new battle arena that will cost 70 US Dollars.
